More Quotes from Lew Wallace:
I know what I should love to do--to build a study to write, and to think of nothing else. I want to bury myself in a den of books. I want to saturate myself with the elements of which they are made, and breathe their atmosphere until I am of it. Not a bookworm, being which is to give off no utterances but a man in the world of writing--one with a pen that shall stop men to listen to it, whether they wish to or not.Lew Wallace
