Reading a book is like re-writing it for yourself.
If plan A fails, remember there are 25 more letters.
Books serve to show a man that those original thoughts of his aren’t very new after all.
Annual income twenty pounds, annual expenditure nineteen six, result happiness. Annual income twenty pounds, annual expenditure twenty pound ought and six, result misery.
If you live for having it all, what you have is never enough.
Wealth is like sea-water; the more we drink, the thirstier we become; and the same is true of fame.
I'd like to live as a poor man with lots of money.
There is no friend as loyal as a book.
