Books serve to show a man that those original thoughts of his aren't very new after all. ~Abraham Lincoln
The smallest bookstore still contains more ideas of worth than have been presented in the entire history of television. ~Andrew Ross
I've never known any trouble that an hour's reading didn't assuage. ~Charles de Secondat, Baron de la Brède et de Montesquieu, Pensées Diverses
To sit alone in the lamplight with a book spread out before you, and hold intimate converse with men of unseen generations — such is a pleasure beyond compare. ~Kenko Yoshida
Sometimes, looking at the many books I have at home, I feel I shall die before I come to the end of them, yet I cannot resist the temptation of buying new books.
