Quotes

• “It's a good thing to turn your mind upside down now and then, like an hour-glass, to let the particles run the other way.”
• “Printer's ink has been running a race against gunpowder these many, many years. Ink is handicapped, in a way, because you can blow up a man with gunpowder in half a second, while it may take twenty years to blow him up with a book. But the gunpowder destroys itself along with its victim, while a book can keep on exploding for centuries.”
• “The most interesting persons are always those who have nothing special to do: children, nurses, policemen and actors at 11 o'clock in the morning.”
• “Philadelphia was the first city to foresee the advantages of a Federal constitution and oatmeal as a breakfast food.”
• “We visit bookshops not so often to buy any one special book, but rather to rediscover, in the happier and more expressive words of others, our own encumbered soul.”
• “My theology, briefly, Is that the Universe Was Dictated But not Signed.”
