Famous quotes containing the word books:

    ““The life of reason”Ma phrase once used by people who thought that reading books would deliver them from their passions.”
    —Mason Cooley (b. 1927)

    “PLAYING SHOULD BE FUN! In our great eagerness to teach our children we studiously look for “educational” toys, games with built-in lessons, books with a “message.” Often these “tools” are less interesting and stimulating than the child’s natural curiosity and playfulness. Play is by its very nature educational. And it should be pleasurable. When the fun goes out of play, most often so does the learning.”
    —Joanne E. Oppenheim (20th century)

    “Learning is, in too many cases, but a foil to common sense; a substitute for true knowledge. Books are less often made use of as “spectacles” to look at nature with, than as blinds to keep out its strong light and shifting scenery from weak eyes and indolent dispositions.... The learned are mere literary drudges.”
    —William Hazlitt (1778–1830)
