GOOD BOOKS

Their Influences Told by Prominent Men

A good book is the best of friends—the same yesterday, to-day and forever.—Tupper.

With books we can by a single bound leave the cares and anxieties of daily life, and be in the peaceful realm of delightful study.—Dale.

It is nearly an axiom, that people will be no better than the books they read.—Bishop Potter.

Of a book he read when a boy, Benjamin Franklin said: “It gave me such a turn of thinking as to have an influence on my conduct through life; . . . and if I have been a useful citizen, the public owes all the advantages of it to that little book.”
