• “There is no more time-wasting process than that of believing people will act, and then finding that they will not.”

• “Few people today muck around in earth, and when on international flights, I often find I have the only decently dirty fingernails.”

• “A lending library enables people to help themselves to information; a locked-up book collection is useful only to the person who owns it.”
