Famous quotes containing the word books:

    “The world has held great Heroes,
    As history books have showed;
    But never a name to go down to fame
    Compared with that of Toad!”
    —Kenneth Grahame (1859–1932)

    “... the subjective viewpoint is the only one to use regarding a library. Your true library is a collection of the books you want. You may have deplorably poor taste or bad judgment. Never mind. Correct those traits before you exchange your books.”
    —Carolyn Wells (1862–1942)

    “I am absent altogether too much to be a suitable instructor for a law-student. When a man has reached the age that Mr. Widner has, and has already been doing for himself, my judgment is, that he reads the books for himself without an instructor. That is precisely the way I came to the law.”
    —Abraham Lincoln (1809–1865)
