"You can't get a cup of tea big enough or a book long enough to suit me."

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

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

" It is a man's duty to have books. A library is not a luxury, but one of the necessaries of life. "
