Book Quotes

A truly great book should be read in youth, again in maturity and once more in old age, as a fine building should be seen by morning light, at noon and by moonlight Picture Quote #1

Paradise Lost is a book that, once put down, is very hard to pick up again Picture Quote #1

Someday I hope to write a book where the royalties will pay for the copies I give away Picture Quote #1

Thank heaven, though, one of the few mistakes I haven't made is to talk about the unwritten book Picture Quote #1

There is no mistaking a real book when one meets it. It is like falling in love, and like that colossal adventure it is an experience of great social import. Even as the tranced swain, the book lover yearns to tell others of his bliss. He writes letters about it, adds it to the postscript of all manner of communications, intrudes it into telephone messages, and insists on his friends writing down the title of the find. Like the simple-hearted betrothed, once certain of his conquest Picture Quote #1

The issue of economics is not something I've understood as well as I should. I've got Greenspan's book.... I've never been involved in Wall Street, I've never been involved in the financial stuff, the financial workings of the country, so I'd like to have somebody intimately familiar with it Picture Quote #1

The real Bible is a sealed book, an apocryphon, a book not to be opened (mentally) until its time has come Picture Quote #1

The Great Code was a silly and sloppy book. It was also a work of very great genius. The point is that genius is not enough. A book worthy of God and of Helen must do better than that Picture Quote #1

You've got enough in here that people who get hold of this - like AP or any of the state-controlled media - they're going to focus on the soap opera aspects of your book and they're going to ignore what is truly one of the most substantive policy books I've read Picture Quote #1

There were people who got me very involved in politics. But then there was also a book. It was a trilogy, a biography of Trotsky by Isaac Deutscher, which made a very deep impression on me and gave me a love of political biography for the rest of my life Picture Quote #1

At some point, I would like to write a book and other things, but I work best when there is some sort of deadline in my own mind, but not when fifty people or fifty million people are breathing down the back of my neck Picture Quote #1

Deliver me from writers who say the way they live doesn't matter. I'm not sure a bad person can write a good book, if art doesn't make us better, then what on Earth is it for Picture Quote #1

Except a living man there is nothing more wonderful than a book! A message to us from the dead - from human souls we never saw, who lived, perhaps, thousands of miles away. And yet these, in those little sheets of paper, speak to us, arouse us, terrify us, teach us, comfort us, open their hearts to us as brothers Picture Quote #1

I try to get in quiet time and book time, but really, the only time I ever get that is when I'm on an airplane - I have a fear of flying, but I actually love flying because it's the only time I can sleep, and it's the only time I get to read Picture Quote #1

That's the most Warholian thing about what I do... I embrace pop culture. The very thing that everybody says is poisonous and ostentatious and shallow, it's like my chemistry book... And I make what I believe to be art out of it Picture Quote #1

In the book of Gaga, fame is in your heart, fame is there to comfort you, to bring you self-confidence and worth whenever you need it Picture Quote #1

The pencil moved prophetic: together now men read in the fair book of nature, and find the hope they need. The wreath woven by the river is by the seaside worn, and one of fate's best arrows to its due mark is borne Picture Quote #1

Hate and fear are not wanted here, nor toys nor country lovers, everything they took from my new poem book but the flyleaf and the covers Picture Quote #1

The great and good do no die even in this world. Embalmed in books, their spirits walk abroad. The book is a living voice. It is an intellect to which one still listens Picture Quote #1

These days it seems like any idiot with a laptop computer can churn out a business book and make a few bucks. That's certainly what I'm hoping. It would be a real letdown if the trend changed before this masterpiece goes to print Picture Quote #1

Someone told me that each equation I included in my book would halve the sales. I did put in one equation, Einstein's famous equation, E = MC squared. I hope that this will not scare off half of my potential readers Picture Quote #1
