One Must Be Rich In Thought And Character To Owe Nothing To Books.

Our Favorites Are Few; Since Only What Rises From The Heart Reaches It, Being Caught And Carried On The Tongues Of Men Wheresoever Love And Letters Journey.

A Good Book Is Fruitful Of Other Books; It Perpetuates Its Fame From Age To Age, And Makes Eras In The Lives Of Its Readers.

None Can Teach Admirably If Not Loving His Task.
