Book qoutes II

No matter what our achievements might be, we think well of ourselves only in rare moments. We need people to bear witness against our inner judge, who keeps book on our shortcomings and transgressions. We need people to convince us that we are not as bad as we think we are.
Eric Hoffer quotes

A truly good book teaches me better than to read it. I must soon lay it down, and commence living on its hint. What I began by reading, I must finish by acting.
Henry David Thoreau quotes

It is not all books that are as dull as their readers.
Henry David Thoreau quotes

Wherever they burn books, in the end will also burn human beings.
Heinrich Heine quotes
A classic is a book which people praise and don't read.
Mark Twain quotes
Unless their use by readers bring them to life, books are indeed dead things.
Lawrence Clark Powell quotes

A home without books is a body without soul.
Marcus Tullius Cicero quotes

Books are the legacies that a great genius leaves to mankind, which are delivered down from generation to generation as presents to the posterity of those who are yet unborn.
Joseph Addison quotes
