Pedantry Is The Dotage Of Knowledge.

Books Are Never Out Of Humour; Never Envious Or Jealous, They Answer All Questions With Readiness; ... They Teach Us How To Live And How To Die; They Dispel Melancholy By Their Mirth, And Amuse By Their Wit; They Prepare The Soul To Suffer Everything And Desire Nothing; They Introduce Us To Ourselves.

Fear Of Corrupting The Mind Of The Younger Generation Is The Loftiest Form Of Cowardice.

Great Books Conserve Time.

The Time To Read Is Any Time: No Apparatus, No Appointment Of Time And Place, Is Necessary.

Originality Is Only Variation.
