"Books, not which afford us a cowering enjoyment,……" — Henry David Thoreau

"Books, not which afford us a cowering enjoyment, but in which each thought is of unusual daring; such as an idle man cannot read, and a timid one would not be entertained by, which even make us dangerous to existing institution - such call I good books."

Henry David Thoreau
