I have been collecting quotes on books my entire life. I enjoyed this one except it didn't have my favourite of all time. Now I have to go and dig out the quote from my personal list.

The books we think we ought to read are poky, dull and dry;
The books that we would like to read, we are ashamed to buy.
The books that people talk about, we never can recall;
And the books that people give us, well, they are the worst of all.

This is another of my little favorites. It is a quotation of books about books and reading. From quotes about libraries to quotes about publishing and collectors, it features a nice selection. Feel free to read it through, or just browse here and there. For me, it is a book I pick up every so often and browse again and again. If you like books and stuff about books, this is a nice little book to have.

Good collection of literary quotes about literature and reading in general. I found several quotes that I really like by reading this book.
