• Los libros de bolsillo no se consideraban libros de verdad. Hasta entonces, sólo se publicaban novelas policíacas, libros de bolsillo de 25 céntimos que se vendían en los quioscos. Cuando los editores neoyorquinos empezaron a publicar libros de bolsillo de calidad, no había dónde comprarlos.

• There is no mistaking a real book when one meets it. It is like falling in love, and like that colossal adventure it is an experience of great social import. Even as the tranced swain, the booklover yearns to tell others of his bliss. He writes letters about it, adds it to the postscript of all manner of communications, intrudes it into telephone messages, and insists on his friends writing down the title of the find. Like the simple-hearted betrothed, once certain of his conquest

• You can tell a book is real when your heart beats faster. Real books make you sweat. Cry, if no one is looking. Real books help you make sense of your crazy life. Real books tell it true, don't hold back and make you stronger. But most of all, real books give you hope. Because it's not always going to be like this and books-the good ones, the ones-show you how to make it better. Now.

  Laurie Halse Anderson

• Beware of books. They are more than innocent assemblages of paper and ink and string and glue. If they are any good, they have the spirit of the author within. Authors are rogues and ruffians and easy lays. They are gluttons for sweets and savories. They devour life and always want more. They have sap, spirit, sex. Books are panderers. The Jews are not wrong to worship books. A real book has pheromones and sprouts grass through its cover.

  Erica Jong

• The book has very specific qualities. Let's say in 2300 they discover the physical book, after having lived with the digital book for several hundred years. They'll be able to say, "Look at all the cool stuff you can have in a real book and how different it is." The differences are manifold.

• La creciente madurez está marcada por las libertades cada vez mayores que nos tomamos con nuestros viajes... hemos descubierto (algunas personas nunca lo hacen) que los libros de verdad pueden llevarse de viaje y que a sus otras delicias pueden añadirse horas de lectura dorada.

• Cuando vendes un libro a un hombre no le vendes sólo doce onzas de papel, tinta y pegamento, le vendes toda una vida nueva. Amor y amistad y humor y barcos en el mar por la noche - hay todo el cielo y la tierra en un libro, un libro de verdad.

• Imagination doesn’t just mean making things up. It means thinking things through, solving them, or hoping to do so, and being just distant enough to be able to laugh at things that are normally painful. Head teachers would call this escapism, but they would be entirely wrong. I would call fantasy the most serious, and the most useful, branch of writing there is. And this is why I don’t, and never would, write Real Books.

• El objeto que llamamos libro no es el libro real, sino su potencial, como una partitura musical o una semilla. Sólo existe plenamente en el acto de ser leído; y su verdadero hogar está dentro de la cabeza del lector, donde resuena la sinfonía, germina la semilla. Un libro es un corazón que sólo late en el pecho de otro.

• I have stared long enough at the glowing flat rectangles of computer screens. Let us give more time for doing things in the real world...plant a plant, walk the dogs, read a real book, go to the opera.

• If you're going to visit and re-visit a book, it has more reason to be a real book, because of that ability to concentrate and that relationship that you build up with it, as opposed to the relationship that you build up with your screen, rewards replacement.
