The great British Library gezegde

The great British Library --an immense collection of volumes of all ages and languages, many of which are now forgotten, and most of which are seldom read: one of these sequestered pools of obsolete literature to which modern authors repair, and draw buckets full of classic lore, or ''pure English, undefiled'' wherewith to swell their own scanty rills of thought.

Washington Irving (1783-1859)

The great British Library -- one of these sequestered pools of obsolete literature to which modern authors repair, and draw buckets full of classic lore, or "pure English, undefiled" wherewith to swell their own scanty rills of thought.

Washington Irving (1783-1859)

All men have poetry in their hearts, and it is necessary for them, as much as possible, to express their feelings. For this they must have a medium, moving and pliant, which can refreshingly become their own, age after age. All great languages undergo change. Those languages which resist the spirit of change are doomed and will never produce great harvests of thought and literature. When forms become fixed, the spirit either weakly accepts its imprisonment or rebels. All revolutions consists of the "within" fighting against invasion from "without"... All great human movements are related to some great idea.

Rabindranath Tagore (1861-1941)

Poetry

The truth is rarely pure and never simple. Modern life would be very tedious if it were either, and modern literature a complete impossibility!

Oscar Wilde (1854-1900)

Of the innumerable authors whose performances are thus treasured up in magnificent obscurity (in a library), most are forgotten, because they never deserved to be remembered

Samuel Johnson (1709-1784)

In the history of literature there are many great enduring works which were not published in the lifetimes of the authors. If the authors had not achieved self-affirmation while writing, how could they have continued to write?

Gao Xingjian (1940-)

In science, read by preference the newest works. In literature, read the oldest. The classics are always modern.

Amy Lowell (1874-1925)

I love the Plymouth library. I went to the history room and read the book on the 20th century history of Plymouth and thought it was great. I read they were going to do a second book. I hadn't thought about that case in years, but it all came back. I read what was available on it and realized we needed a more balanced treatment.

Gail Begley

Nothing could be more inappropriate to American literature than its English source since the Americans are not British in sensibility.

Wallace Stevens (1879-1955)

There are so many books, once banned, that are foundations of English literature, so it was very important to gain awareness of this threat to English literature.

Courtney Lewis

It's the biggest job in football and we would not stand in his way if he wanted to take it. We're the only team to get a win and a draw against Chelsea this season which speaks volumes for his tactical ability. It's a great reflection on him and Charlton that he's linked with the job. I'd personally like to see an Englishman in the job next, and the fact is that Alan's one of the best English coaches there is.

Peter Varney

They also learn through songs, rhymes, and lots of literature. We read many books and introduce kids to a variety of subjects and authors.

Colette Jenson

It is a way to introduce kids to a wonderful children's classic. We hope to make the day enjoyable, yet we also hope that those who attend may end up wanting to read 'Alice in Wonderland' some time or at least want to see the Disney musical. It is a fun way to get them familiar with a great piece of literature.

Marilyn Solomon

Rupert is a very, very classic British character who got a little bit forgotten. We'll restore Rupert to his former glory.

Mike Heap

By and large the literature of a democracy will never exhibit the order, regularity, skill, and art characteristic of aristocratic literature; formal qualities will be neglected or actually despised. The style will often be strange, incorrect, overburdened, and loose, and almost always strong and bold. Writers will be more anxious to work quickly than to perfect details. Short works will be commoner than long books, wit than erudition, imagination than depth. There will be a rude and untutored vigor of thought with great variety and singular fecundity. Authors will strive to astonish more than to please, and to stir passions rather than to charm taste.

Alexis de Tocqueville (1805-1859)
