Books are the quietest and most constant of friends; they are the most accessible and wisest of counselors, and the most patient of teachers.
The finest language is mostly made up of simple unimposing words.
No story is the same to us after a lapse of time; or rather we who read it are no longer the same interpreters.
I don’t want the world to give me anything for my books except money enough to save me from the temptation to write only for money.
The words of genius have a wider meaning than the thought that prompted them.
…correct English is the slang of prigs who write history and essays. And the strongest slang of all is the slang of poets.
