Library Quotes

"Medical research in the 20th century mostly takes

place in the lab; in the Renaissance, though, researchers went first and foremost to the library to see that the ancients had said"

Peter Lewis Allen

“Library: Here is where people, one frequently finds, lower their voices and raise their minds.”

Richard Armour

“Libraries will get you through times of no money better than money will get you through times of no libraries.”

Anne Herbert

“An original idea. That can’t be too hard. The library must be full of

them.”

Stephen Fry

“Whatever the cost of our libraries, the price is cheap compared to that of an ignorant nation”

Walter Cronkite

“When I discovered libraries, it was like having Christmas every day.”

Jean Fritz

"You want weapons? We are in a library! The best weapons in the

world!"

Dr Who

“Books are the most important tools of our craft when assembled in mass in our great medical libraries.”

Harvey Cushing

In: R. Kagan (ed.), Leaders of

“What is more important in a library than anything else—than everything else—is the fact that it exists”

Archibald Macleish

“Reading is essential for those who seek to rise above the ordinary”

~ Jim Rohn ~
