Famous quotes containing the word books:

    “Isn’t it remarkable how everyone who knew Lawrence has felt compelled to write about him? Why, he’s had more books written about him than any writer since Byron!”
    —Aldous Huxley (1894–1963)

    “Indeed, the best books have a use, like sticks and stones, which is above or beside their design, not anticipated in the preface, not concluded in the appendix. Even Virgil’s poetry serves a very different use to me today from what it did to his contemporaries. It has often an acquired and accidental value merely, proving that man is still man in the world.”
    —Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)

    “All books are divisible into two classes: the books of the hour, and the books of all time.”
    —John Ruskin (1819–1900)
