...these 'Association Books,' as the booksellers style them, the first place is claimed by two copies of Pope's poems. One is an edition printed at Philadelphia in 1839, which has no importance in itself, but is a new title for the College Library.

The best works of art are so inestimably satisfying in each particular as to inhibit curiosity.

Interests are easy and perceptions difficult, yet to experience the present...
