Motivational Quotes
Books - reading
I know every book of mine by its smell, and I have but to put my nose between the pages to be reminded of all sorts of things.

Best Quotes about Books - reading
Read, read, read. Read everything-- trash, classics, good and bad, and see how they do it. Just like a carpenter who works as an apprentice and studies the master. Read! You'll absorb it. Then write. If it is good, you'll find out. If it's not, throw it out the window.
Faulkner, William
Read nothing that you do not care to remember, and remember nothing you do not mean to use.
Blackie, Professor
Books are standing counselors and preachers, always at hand, and always disinterested; having this advantage over oral instructors, that they are ready to repeat their lesson as often as we please.
Chambers, Oswald
Most books today seemed to have been written overnight from books read the day before.
Chamfort, Sebastien-Roch Nicolas De
No furniture is so charming as books.
Smith, Sydney
The failure to read good books both enfeebles the vision and strengthens our most fatal tendency --the belief that the here and now is all there is.
Bloom, Allan
Thy books should, like thy friends, not many be, yet such wherein men may thy judgment see.
Wycherley, William
In any situation, ask yourself: What strengths do I possess that can contribute towards accomplishing something in this situation? Then follow through.
There is no robber worse than a bad book.
Proverb, Italian
Books are the bees which carry the quickening pollen from one to another mind.
Lowell, James Russell
Book love... is your pass to the greatest, the purest, and the most perfect pleasure that God has prepared for His creatures.
Trollope, Anthony
Those who do not read are no better off than those who cannot read.
I love to lose myself in other men's minds. When I am not walking, I am reading. I cannot sit and think; books think for me.
Lamb, Charles
All my good reading, you might say, was done in the toilet. There are passages in Ulysses which can be read only in the toilet -- if one wants to extract the full flavor of their content.
Miller, Henry
The pleasure of reading is doubled when one lives with another who shares the same books.
Mansfield, Katherine
The things I want to know are in books; my best friend is the man who'll get me a book I ain't read.
Lincoln, Abraham
In science read the newest works, in literature read the oldest.
Bulwer-Lytton, Edward G.
Books to judicious compilers, are useful; to particular arts and professions, they are absolutely necessary; to men of real science, they are tools: but more are tools to them.
Johnson
Until I feared I would lose it, I never loved to read. One does not love breathing.
Lee, Harper
If a book comes from the heart it will contrive to reach other hearts. All art and author craft are of small account to that.
Carlyle, Thomas
Every man is a volume if you know how to read him.
Channing, William Ellery
What is important is not to be able to read rapidly, but to be able to decide what not to read.
Mccay, James T.
The greatest gift is the passion for reading. It is cheap, it consoles, it distracts, it excites, it gives you knowledge of the world and experience of a wide kind. It is a moral illumination.
Hardwick, Elizabeth
A conventional good read is usually a bad read, a relaxing bath in what we know already. A true good read is surely an act of innovative creation in which we, the readers, become conspirators.
Bradbury, Malcolm
Books are not absolutely dead things, but do contain a certain potency of life in them, to be as active as the soul whose progeny they are; they preserve, as in a vial, the purest efficacy and extraction of the living intellect that bred them.
Milton, John
I've never know any trouble than an hour's reading didn't assuage.
Secondat, Charles de
Books and marriage go ill together.
Moliere
The reading of all good books is like a conversation with all the finest men of past centuries.
Descartes, Rene
Books are men of higher stature; the only men that speak aloud for future times to hear.
Barrett, E.S.
The books one reads in childhood, and perhaps most of all the bad and good bad books, create in one's mind a sort of false map of the world, a series of fabulous countries into which one can retreat at odd moments throughout the rest of life, and which in some cases can survive a visit to the real countries which they are supposed to represent.
Orwell, George
If a secret history of books could be written, and the author's private thoughts and meanings noted down alongside of his story, how many insipid volumes would become interesting, and dull tales excite the reader!
Thackeray, William M.
Only a generation of readers will span a generation of writers.
Spielberg, Steven
The books we read should be chosen with great care, that they may be, as an Egyptian king wrote over his library, The medicines of the soul.
Hood, Paxton
A bibliophile of little means is likely to suffer often. Books don't slip from his hands but fly past him through the air, high as birds, high as prices.
Neruda, Pablo
Every abridgement of a good book is a fool abridged.
Montaigne, Michel Eyquem De
A house is not a home unless it contains food and fire for the mind as well as the body.
Fuller, Margaret
The reading or non-reading a book will never keep down a single petticoat.
Byron, Lord
A book that is shut is but a block.
Fuller, Thomas
A book worth reading is worth buying.
Ruskin, John
Everything you need for better future and success has already been written. And guess what? All you have to do is go to the library.
Rohn, Jim
The more sins you confess, the more books you will sell.
Proverb, American
One always tends to overpraise a long book, because one has got through it.
Forster, Edward M.
Don't ask me who's influenced me. A lion is made up of the lambs he's digested, and I've been reading all my life.
Seferis, Giorgos
A person who publishes a book appears willfully in public with his pants down.
Millay, Edna St. Vincent
A man ought to read just as his inclination leads him; for what he reads as a task will do him little good.
Johnson, Samuel
There are two kinds of books. Those that no one reads and those that no one ought to read.
Mencken, H. L.
No tears in the writer, no tears in the reader.
Frost, Robert
The reason that fiction is more interesting than any other form of literature, to those who really like to study people, is that in fiction the author can really tell the truth without humiliating himself.
Roosevelt, Eleanor
I feel a kind of reverence for the first books of young authors. There is so much aspiration in them, so much audacious hope and trembling fear, so much of the heart's history, that all errors and shortcomings are for a while lost sight of in the amiable self assertion of youth.
Longfellow, Henry Wadsworth
All good books are alike in that they are truer than if they had really happened and after you are finished reading one you will feel that all that happened to you and afterwards it all belongs to you; the good and the bad, the ecstasy, the remorse, and sorrow, the people and the places and how the weather was.
Hemingway, Ernest
