Newbery Honor Book

Famous quotes containing the words honor and/or book:

    If you had made the acquiring of ignorance the study of your life, you could not have graduated with higher honor than you could to-day.
    Mark Twain [Samuel Langhorne Clemens] (1835–1910)

    Painting myself for others, I have painted my inward self with colors clearer than my original ones. I have no more made my book than my book has made me—a book consubstantial with its author, concerned with my own self, an integral part of my life; not concerned with some third-hand, extraneous purpose, like all other books.
    Michel de Montaigne (1533–1592)
