If your ship doesn’t come in, swim out to meet it!
It’s not just the books under fire now that worry me. It is the books that will never be written. The books that will never be read.
Wealth is like sea-water; the more we drink, the thirstier we become; and the same is true of fame.
Keep reading books, but remember that a book is only a book, and you should learn to think for yourself.
A book is a device to ignite the imagination.
The one thing that offends me the most is when I walk by a bank and see ads trying to convince people to take out second mortgages on their home so they can go on vacation. That's approaching evil.
Great books help you understand, and they help you feel understood.
Screw it, Let’s do it!
