England has two books, one which she has made and one which has made her: Shakespeare and the Bible.

England has two books, the Bible and Shakespeare. England made Shakespeare,but the Bible made England.

When I see throughout this book, called the Bible, a history of the grossest vices and a collection of the most paltry and contemptible tales and stories, I could not so dishonor my Creator by calling it by His name

There is one spectacle grander than the sea, that is the sky; there is one spectacle grander than the sky, that is the interior of the soul

The Bible is the best of all books, for it is the word of God and teaches us the way to be happy in this world and in the next. Continue therefore to read it and to regulate your life by its precepts.

He loved books; books are cold but safe friends.
