Text Quotes
I cannot sufficiently celebrate the glorious liberty that reigns in the public libraries of the twentieth century as compared with the intolerable management of those of the nineteenth century, in which the books were jealously railed away from the people, and obtainable only at an expenditure of time and red tape calculated to discourage any ordinary taste for literature  (Nineteenth Century Quotes) We forget that the nineteenth century often turned work into sport. We, in contrast, often turn sport into work  (Nineteenth Century Quotes) The nineteenth century will ever be known as the one in which the influences of science were first fully realised in civilised communities; the scientific progress was so gigantic that it seems rash to predict that any of its successors can be more important in the life of any nation  (Nineteenth Century Quotes) A man who has once looked with the archaeological eye will never see quite normally.
