Famous quotes containing the word books:

    “I loved reading, and had a great desire of attaining knowledge; but whenever I asked questions of any kind whatsoever, I was always told, “such things were not proper for girls of my age to know.”... For “Miss must not enquire too far into things, it would turn her brain; she had better mind her needlework, and such things as were useful for women; reading and poring on books would never get me a husband.””
    —Sarah Fielding (1710–1768)

    “I am an inveterate homemaker, it is at once my pleasure, my recreation, and my handicap. Were I a man, my books would have been written in leisure, protected by a wife and a secretary and various household officials. As it is, being a woman, my work has had to be done between bouts of homemaking.”
    —Pearl S. Buck (1892–1973)

    “Old books that have ceased to be of service should no more be abandoned than should old friends who have ceased to give pleasure.”
    —Peregrine, Sir Worsthorne (b. 1923)
