Famous quotes containing the word books:
“History has shown that the less people read, the more books they buy.”
—Albert Camus (1913–1960)
“Learning is, in too many cases, but a foil to common sense; a substitute for true knowledge. Books are less often made use of as “spectacles” to look at nature with, than as blinds to keep out its strong light and shifting scenery from weak eyes and indolent dispositions.... The learned are mere literary drudges.”
—William Hazlitt (1778–1830)
“Our books approach very slowly the things we most wish to know.”
—Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)
