  W. H. Auden

en Now the first lot came forth for Asaph to Joseph: the second to Gedaliah, who with his brethren and sons were twelve: / The third to Zaccur, he, his sons, and his brethren, were twelve: / The fourth to Izri, he, his sons, and his brethren, were twelve: / The fifth to Nethaniah, he, his sons, and his brethren, were twelve: / The sixth to Bukkiah, he, his sons, and his brethren, were twelve: / The seventh to Jesharelah, he, his sons, and his brethren, were twelve: / The eighth to Jeshaiah, he, his sons, and his brethren, were twelve: / The ninth to Mattaniah, he, his sons, and his brethren, were twelve: / The tenth to Shimei, he, his sons, and his brethren, were twelve: / The eleventh to Azareel, he, his sons, and his brethren, were twelve: / The twelfth to Hashabiah, he, his sons, and his brethren, were twelve: / The thirteenth to Shubael, he, his sons, and his brethren, were twelve: / The fourteenth to Mattithiah, he, his sons, and his brethren, were twelve: / The fifteenth to Jeremoth, he, his sons, and his brethren, were twelve: / The sixteenth to Hananiah, he, his sons, and his brethren, were twelve: / The seventeenth to Joshbekashah, he, his sons, and his brethren, were twelve: / The eighteenth to Hanani, he, his sons, and his brethren, were twelve: / The nineteenth to Mallothi, he, his sons, and his brethren, were twelve: / The twentieth to Eliathah, he, his sons, and his brethren, were twelve: / The one and twentieth to Hothir, he, his sons, and his brethren, were twelve: / The two and twentieth to Giddalti, he, his sons, and his brethren, were twelve: / The three and twentieth to Mahazioth, he, his sons, and his brethren, were twelve: / The four and twentieth to Romamtiezer, he, his sons, and his brethren, were twelve.

en All the oxen for the burnt offering were twelve bullocks, the rams twelve, the lambs of the first year twelve, with their meat offering: and the kids of the goats for sin offering twelve.

en I find your question bizarre, ... It would be along the line of saying that I shouldn't see a movie that involves an accident. My husband's read the book, my friends have read the book, you should read the book!

en Let me say again that I have not read your book. And one of the reasons I didn't was because I wanted to do my own research. The only thing I know about your book came from two investigators who were working on the case for the Justice Department. I have not read your book, and you have not seen my film.

en Clearly, she's a very smart person. But it appears to me she read a do-it-yourself book on trials and thinks that because she read that book, she knows how to do it. It's like reading a do-it-yourself book on emergency surgery. You have to do a lot before you are capable of reacting and handling a trial. They're so chaotic, you never know what's going to happen.

en I don't know why, but I read that book and I learned about test flight and the history of the astronaut program and that's when I set it as a lifetime goal. I did not like the movie, but I loved the book.

en is it any different to loaning a book to someone? There was a book in the US ( Secrets of the Ya Ya Sisterhood ) that had almost zero promotion and no marketing from the publishers. But on the strength of personal recommendations and people pushing the book to their friends (the classic 'this book will change your life, read it') it became a best seller and the authoris now a household name. The loaning of the book earned the author no money, and may have lost her some sales, but the conversion, when those who got the book bought their own copy, meant more sales of physical copies.

en It totally sounds like an advice book, ... but there's not a shred of advice in the entire book, which is good for any of your readers. It's a novel. It's a humor book. It's sort of a what-if scenario of what would happen if you took a B-movie actor, meaning me -- I take the lead role in the book -- and put him into a big Hollywood movie. The answer is that it's not good. It's a misadventure. I single-handedly take down a big Hollywood movie.

en The good of a book lies in its being read. A book is made up of signs that speak of other signs, which in their turn speak of things. Without an eye to read them, a book contains signs that produce no concepts; therefore it is dumb.
  Umberto Eco

en Then there came after them an evil posterity who inherited the Book, taking only the frail good of this low life and saying: It will be forgiven us. And if the like good came to them, they would take it (too). Was not a promise taken from them in the Book that they would not speak anything about Allah but the truth, and they have read what is in it; and the abode of the hereafter is better for those who guard (against evil). Do you not then understand? / And (as for) those who hold fast by the Book and keep up prayer, surely We do not waste the reward of the right doers.

en The way a book is read - which is to say, the qualities a reader brings to a book - can have as much to do with its worth as anything the author puts in it. Anyone who can read, can learn to read deeply and thus live more fully.
  Norman Cousins

en The first book I wrote was The Bride Price which was a romantic book, but my husband burnt the book when he saw it. I was the typical African woman, I'd done this privately, I wanted him to look at it, approve it and he said he wouldn't read it.
  Buchi Emecheta

en If you're a freedom-to-read person, pulling a book like that one is not that different from any book that might have fake scholarship. No matter how wrong a book might be, people should have access to it. It's a slippery slope once you start removing books like that.

en If I were asked what book is better than a cheap book, I should answer that there is one book better than a cheap book, - and that is a book honestly come by
