More quotes by Christopher Morley

"When you sell a man a book you don't sell just twelve ounces of paper and ink and glue - you sell him a whole new life. Love and friendship and humour and ships at sea by night - there's all heaven and earth in a book, a real book."
"Humor is perhaps a sense of intellectual perspective: an awareness that some things are really important, others not; and that the two kinds are most oddly jumbled in everyday affairs."
"Act like you expect to get into the end zone."
"The courage of the poet is to keep ajar the door that leads into madness."
"There is only one success-to be able to spend life in your own way."
