"Books constitute capital. A library book lasts as long as a house, for hundreds of years. It is not, then, an article of mere consumption but fairly of capital, and often in the case of professional men, setting out in life, it is their only capital."
Author:     Thomas Jefferson Category:     Books and Reading

"Tradition is but a meteor, which, if it once falls, cannot be rekindled. Memory, once interrupted, is not to be recalled. But written learning is a fixed luminary, which, after the cloud that had hidden it has passed away, is again bright in its proper station. So books are faithful repositories, which may be awhile neglected or forgotten, but when opened again, will again impart instruction."
Author:     Johnson Category:     Books and Reading

"Books that you carry to the fire, and hold readily in your hand, are most useful after all."
Author:     Samuel Johnson Category:     Books and Reading

"Books like friends, should be few and well-chosen."
Author:     Joineriana Category:     Books and Reading

Author:     Sir Arthur Keith Category:     Books and Reading

"A bad book is the worse that it cannot repent. It has not been the devil's policy to keep the masses of mankind in ignorance; but finding that they will read, he is doing all in his power to poison their books."
Author:     E.N. Kirk Category:     Books and Reading

"You can either read something many times in order to be assured that you got it all, or else you can define your purpose and use techniques which will assure that you have met it and gotten what you need."
Author:     Peter Kump Category:     Books and Reading
