Famous quotes containing the word book:

    I greet you at the beginning of a great career, which must yet have had a long foreground somewhere, for such a start. I rubbed my eyes a little to see if this sunbeam were no illusion; but the solid sense of the book is a sober certainty. It has the best merits, namely, of fortifying and encouraging.
    Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)

    I know what say the fathers wise,—
    The Book itself before me lies,
    Old Chrysostom, best Augustine.
    Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)

    Until it is kindled by a spirit as flamingly alive as the one which gave it birth a book is dead to us. Words divested of their magic are but dead hieroglyphs.
    Henry Miller (1891–1980)
