Wayne Swan - Book

Famous quotes containing the word book:

“A book is like a man—clever and dull, brave and cowardly, beautiful and ugly. For every flowering thought there will be a page like a wet and mangy mongrel, and for every looping flight a tap on the wing and a reminder that wax cannot hold the feathers firm too near the sun.”
—John Steinbeck (1902–1968)

“A good book is the precious lifeblood of a master spirit, embalmed and treasured up on purpose to a life beyond life.”
—John Milton (1608–1674)

“The book exists for us, perchance, which will explain our miracles and reveal new ones.”
—Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)
