Famous quotes containing the word book:
“The bottle is drunk out by one;
At two, the book is shut;
At three, the lovers lie apart,
Love and its commerce done....”
—Philip Larkin (19221986)
“Common sense should tell us that reading is the ultimate weapondestroying ignorance, poverty and despair before they can destroy us. A nation that doesnt read much doesnt know much. And a nation that doesnt know much is more likely to make poor choices in the home, the marketplace, the jury box and the voting booth...The challenge, therefore, is to convince future generations of children that carrying a book is more rewarding than carrying guns.”
—Jim Trelease (20th century)
“Everything that is printed and bound in a book contains some echo at least of the best that is in literature.”
—Henry David Thoreau (18171862)
