The Anatomy Of Melancholy

The Anatomy Of Melancholy
What a catalogue of new books this year, all his age (I say) have our Frankfurt Marts, our domestic Marts, brought out. Twice a year we stretch out wits out and set them to sale; after great toil we attain nothing…What a glut of books! Who can read them? As already, we shall have a vast Chaos and confusion of Books, we are oppressed with them, our eyes ache with reading, our fingers with turning. For my part I am one of the number—one of the many—I do not deny it...”

“Let thy fortune be what it will, 'tis thy mind alone that makes thee poor or rich, miserable or happy.”
