Famous quotes containing the words world and/or library:
“When the world was half a thousand years younger all events had much sharper outlines than now. The distance between sadness and joy, between good and bad fortune, seemed to be much greater than for us; every experience had that degree of directness and absoluteness which joy and sadness still have in the mind of a child”
—Johan Huizinga (1872–1945)
“... as beauty is in the eye of the beholder, the ideal library is in the wish of its maker.”
