Quotes - books and learning

In honor of the essay question on my world history midterm regarding the printing press... I give you, quotes about books and learning!

 “Books to the ceiling, books to the sky, my pile of books is a mile high. How I love them! How I need them! I’ll have a long beard by the time I read them.” – Arnold Lobel
“O what a world of profit and delight/Of power, of honor, of omnipotence/Is promised to the studious artisan!/All things that move between the quiet poles/Shall be at my command.” – Christopher Marlowe
