Any book, which is at all important, should be reread immediately

Few and far between are the books you'll cherish, returning to them time and again, to revisit old friends, relive old happiness, and recapture the magic of that first read.

To me, re-reading my favorite books is like spending time with my best friends.
I’d never be satisfied to limit myself to just one experience each with my favorite people.

The doctor sees all the weakness of mankind; the lawyer all the wickedness, the theologian all the stupidity.

Just remember, once you're over the hill you begin to pick up speed.

Every man takes the limits of his own field of vision for the limits of the world.
