"There are perhaps no days of our childhood we lived so fully as those we spent with a favourite book."

"The man who does not read good books has no advantage over the man who can't read them."

"There is no such thing as a moral or an immoral book. Books are well written, or badly written. "

"Always read something that will make you look good if you die in the middle of it."
