Text Quotes
Reader, I am myself the subject of my book; you would be unreasonable to spend your leisure on so frivolous and so vain a matter (Book Quotes)
The intellectual is, quite simply, a human being who has a pencil in his or her hand when reading a book (Book Quotes)
There ought to be some sign in a book about man, that the writer knows thoroughly one man at least (Book Quotes)
If a book is really good, it deserves to be read again, and if it’s great, it should be read at least three times (Book Quotes)
I don’t know what it’s like for a book writer or a doctor or a teacher as they work to get established in their jobs, but for a singer, you’ve got to continue to grow or else you’re just like last night’s cornbread... stale and dry (Book Quotes)
In the book of life every page has two sides: we human beings fill the upper side with our plans, hopes and wishes, but providence writes on the other side, and what it ordains is seldom our goal (Book Quotes)
The incredible thing about the human mind is that is didn’t come with an instruction book (Book Quotes)
Life, as the most ancient of all metaphors insists, is a journey; and the travel book, in its deceptive simulation of the journey’s fits and starts, rehearses life’s own fragmentation. More even than the novel, it embraces the contingency of things (Book Quotes)
Most bad books get that way because their authors are engaged in trying to justify themselves. If a vain author is an alcoholic, then the most sympathetically portrayed character in his book will be an alcoholic. This sort of thing is very boring for outsiders (Book Quotes)
Do you know a book that you are willing to put under your head for a pillow when you lie dying? Very well; that is the book you want to study while you are living. There is but one such book in the world (Book Quotes)
How often might a man, after he had jumbled a set of letters in a bag, fling them out upon the ground before they would fall into an exact poem, yea, or so much as make a good discourse in prose? And may not a little book be as easily made by chance as this great volume of the world? (Book Quotes)
Without grace no book can live, and with it the poorest may have its life prolonged (Book Quotes)
The sure foundations of the state are laid in knowledge, not in ignorance; and every sneer at education, at culture, at book learning, which is the recorded wisdom of the experience of mankind, is the demagogue’s sneer at intelligent liberty, inviting national degeneracy and ruin (Book Quotes)
Book lovers will understand me, and they will know too that part of the pleasure of a library lies in its very existence (Book Quotes)
If you are writing any book about the end of the world, what you are really writing about is what’s worth saving about it (Book Quotes)
Every time I write a book, I’ve probably taken five years off my life (Book Quotes)
There is always shame in the creation of an expressive work, whether it’s a book or a clay pot. Every artist worries about how they will be seen by others through their work. When you create, you aspire to do justice to yourself, to remake yourself, and there is always the fear that you will expose the very thing that you hoped to transform (Book Quotes)
The sensation of writing a book is the sensation of spinning, blinded by love and daring. It is the sensation of rearing and peering from the bent tip of a grass blade, looking for a route (Book Quotes)
If you were a medieval scholar reading a book, you knew that there was a reasonable likelihood you’d never see that particular text again, and so a high premium was placed on remembering what you read. You couldn’t just pull a book off the shelf to consult it for a quote or an idea (Book Quotes)
A novel with a bad middle is a bad book. A bad ending is something I’ve just gotten in the habit of forgiving (Book Quotes)
Book tours are excellent things, and one is lucky to get to go on one, but they have a way of leeching away one’s will to live (Book Quotes)
I mean, when you’re tired of book reviews, you’re tired of life (Book Quotes)
It’s a terrible thing for a book, when you feel like you’re supposed to like it (Book Quotes)
My book group has one rule: no books for adults. We read young adult fiction only (Book Quotes)
I can never leave a bookstore without buying a book. I read four or five at a time (Book Quotes)
I try to be upbeat. I read this book which tells you to write down everything that you’re grateful for each day. Now I’m constantly noticing all the little things that make me joyful (Book Quotes)
In baseball, democracy shines its clearest. The only race that matters is the race to the bag. The creed is the rule book. And color, merely something to distinguish one team’s uniform from another’s (Book Quotes)
I actually own a copy of my own book; that’s how dedicated I am as an author (Book Quotes)
Black people were very angry with me for writing the book. A lot of people didn’t believe me, or didn’t want to believe me, and that used to really bother me. It was a very painful and difficult time (Book Quotes)
Yeah, because I think it’s more important just to inspire people to wake up one day and pick up a book and start feeling it out for themselves (Book Quotes)
