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.
-- Allan Bloom
1930-1992, American Educator,
Author
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.
-- Malcolm Bradbury
1932-, British Author
You don't have
to burn books to destroy a culture. Just get people to stop
reading them.
-- Ray Bradbury
1920-, American Science
Fiction Writer
Some books
makes me want to go adventuring, others make me feel that
they have saved me the trouble.
