Quotes by Christopher Morley  (?)

“There is no mistaking a real book when one meets it. It is like falling in love.”
Christopher Morley, Pipefuls

“Read, every day, something no one else is reading. Think, every day, something no one else is thinking. Do, every day, something no one else would be silly enough to do. It is bad for the mind to be always part of unanimity.”
Christopher Morley

“When you sell a man a book you don’t sell him just twelve ounces of paper and ink and glue—you sell him a whole new life. Love and friendship and humour and ships at sea by night—there’s all heaven and earth in a book, a real book I mean.”
Christopher Morley, Parnassus on Wheels
