"The great American novel has not only already been written, it has already been rejected."
Author:     Frank Dane Category:     Books and Reading

"Next, in importance to books are their titles."
Author:     Paul Davies Category:     Books and Reading

"If I had my way books would not be written in English, but in an exceedingly difficult secret language that only skilled professional readers and story-tellers could interpret. Then people like you would have to go to public halls and pay good prices to hear the professionals decode and read the books aloud for you. This plan would have the advantage of scaring off all amateur authors, retired politicians, country doctors and I-Married-a-Midget writers who would not have the patience to learn the secret language."
Author:     Robertson Davies Category:     Books and Reading

"I heard his library burned down and both books were destroyed -- and one of them hadn't even been colored in yet."
Author:     John Dawkins Category:     Books and Reading

"The man who is fond of books is usually a man of lofty thought, and of elevated opinions."

"The world of books is the most remarkable creation of man nothing else that he builds ever lasts monuments fall; nations perish; civilization grow old and die out; new races build others. But in the world of books are volumes that have seen this happen again and again and yet live on. Still young, still as fresh as the day they were written, still telling men's hearts, of the hearts of men centuries dead."
Author:     Clarence Day Category:     Books and Reading

"There is an art of reading, as well as an art of thinking, and an art of writing."
Author:     Isaac Disraeli Category:     Books and Reading

"Never judge a book by its movie."
Author:     J. W. Eagan Category:     Books and Reading

"Readers are less and less seen as mere non-writers, the subhuman "other" or flawed derivative of the author; the lack of a pen is no longer a shameful mark of secondary status but a positively enabling space, just as within every writer can be seen to lurk, as a repressed but contaminating antithesis, a reader."
Author:     Terry Eagleton Category:     Books and Reading

"Our high respect for a well read person is praise enough for literature."
Author:     Ralph Waldo Emerson Category:     Books and Reading
