We cannot, after all, judge a biography by its length, by the number of pages in it; we must judge by the richness of the contents...Sometimes the 'unfinisheds' are among the most beautiful symphonies.

Viktor E. Frankl

If you cannot judge a book by its cover, surely we should not judge an author by one book alone?

E. A. Bucchianeri

At different times and in different places I have come to expect certain books to look a certain way, and, as in all fashions, these changing features fix a precise quality onto a book's definition. I judge a book by its cover; I judge a book by its shape.

Alberto Manguel

I've learned that you really cannot judge a book by its cover.

Aileen Lee

The first function of a book review should be, I believe, to give some idea of the contents and character of the book.

Walter Kaufmann

As parents, we should remember that our lives may be the book from the family library which the children most treasure. Are our examples worthy of emulation? Do we live in such a way that a son or a daughter may say, ‘I want to follow my dad,’ or ‘I want to be like my mother’? Unlike the book on the library shelf, the covers of which shield its contents, our lives cannot be closed. Parents, we truly are an open book in the library of learning of our homes.

Thomas S. Monson

Revelation in matters where reason cannot judge, or but probably, ought to be hearkened to. First, Whatever proposition is revealed, of whose truth our mind, by its natural faculties and notions, cannot judge, that is purely matter of faith, and above reason.

John Locke

A sealed book, at whose contents we tremble.

Letitia Elizabeth Landon

Just as you shouldn't judge a book by its cover, don't judge people by their clothes.

Kirron Kher

A book, being a physical object, engenders a certain respect that zipping electrons cannot. Because you cannot turn a book off, because you have to hold it in your hands, because a book sits there, waiting for you, whether you think you want it or not, because of all these things, a book is a friend. It’s not just the content, but the physical being of a book that is there for you always and unconditionally.

Mo Willems

Lecturing is that mysterious process by means of which the contents of the note-book of the professor are transferred through the instrument of the fountain pen to the note-book of the student without passing through the mind of either.

Harry Lloyd

We do not see into men’s hearts. We cannot judge, and are indeed forbidden to judge.

C. S. Lewis

Education today is a process of filling the mind with the contents of books, emptying the contents in the examination hall and returning empty-headed.

Sai Baba

Properly speaking, we learn from those books only that we cannot judge. The author of a book that I am competent to criticise would have to learn from me.

Johann Wolfgang von Goethe

If a book has no index or good table of contents, it is very useful to make one as you are reading it.

Isaac

Nature is a divine art; it cannot be the artist. It is a dominical book and cannot be the scribe. It is an embroidery and cannot be the embroiderer. It is a register and cannot be the accountant. It is the law and cannot be the power.

Said Nursi
