Books save lives  (Literature And Books Quotes) In the electronic age, books, words and reading are not likely to remain sufficiently authoritative and central to knowledge to justify literature  (Literature And Books Quotes) Magazines all too frequently lead to books and should be regarded by the prudent as the heavy petting of literature  (Literature And Books Quotes) Standardization, instead of individualization. Cheap books, instead of private press editions. Active literature, instead of passive leather bindings  (Literature And Books Quotes) Wherever you look there are inspirations, books, literature, paintings, landscapes, everything. Just living is an inspiration  (Literature And Books Quotes) My books are shelved in different places, depending on the bookstore. Sometimes they can be found in the mystery section, sometimes in the humor department, and occasionally even in the literature aisle, which is somewhat astounding  (Literature And Books Quotes) What society doesn't realize is that in the past, ordinary people respected learning. They respected books, and they don't now, or not very much. That whole respect for serious literature and learning has disappeared  (Literature And Books Quotes) If in other lands the press and books and literature of all kinds are censored, we must redouble our efforts here to keep them free  (Literature And Books Quotes) In our time, when the literature for adults is deteriorating, good books for children are the only hope, the only refuge  (Literature And Books Quotes) The beauty of literature is you allow readers to see things through other peoples eyes.
