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

"If one cannot enjoy reading a book over and over again, there is no use in reading it at all. "

"Outside of a dog, man's best friend is a book. Inside of a dog, it's too dark to read."

"Books are a hardbound drug with no danger of overdose. I am the happy victim of books."
