Quotes

• “There is really no way of considering a book independently of one's special sensations in reading it on a particular occasion. In this as in everything else one must allow a certain relativity. In a sense, one can never read the book that the author originally wrote, and one can never read the same book twice.”
• “Education, the last hope of the liberal in all periods.”
• “It may be that there is nothing more demoralizing than a small but adequate income.”
• “Marxism is the opium of the intellectuals.”
