The end of reading is not more books but more life.

Man is a dog's idea of what God should be.

No man is ever old enough to know better.

The time to read is any time: no apparatus, no appointment of time and place, is necessary.

Beware of your habits. The better they are the more surely they will be your undoing.

Book-love, I say again, lasts throughout life, it never flags or fails, but, like Beauty itself, is a joy forever.

A good book is always on tap; it may be decanted and drunk a hundred times, and it is still there for further imbibement.
