Famous quotes containing the word books:

—Walter Benjamin (1892–1940)
“There was books too.... One was “Pilgrim’s Progress,” about a man that left his family it didn’t say why. I read considerable in it now and then. The statements was interesting, but tough.”
—Mark Twain [Samuel Langhorne Clemens] (1835–1910)
““The life of reason”Ma phrase once used by people who thought that reading books would deliver them from their passions.”
