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
Men were made for war. Without it they wandered greyly about, getting under the feet of the women, who were trying to organize the really important things of life. – Alice Thomas Ellis
