Famous quotes containing the word books:
“Avoid all kinds of pleasantry and facetiousness in thy discourse with her, and ... suffer her not to look into Rabelais, or Scarron, or Don Quixote

—Laurence Sterne (17131768)
“My books and instruments shall be my company,
On them to look and practise by myself.”
—William Shakespeare (15641616)
“Translate a book a dozen times from one language to another, and what becomes of its style? Most books would be worn out and disappear in this ordeal. The pen which wrote it is soon destroyed, but the poem survives.”
—Henry David Thoreau (18171862)
