We believed in this country in the existence of a vast reading public for intelligent books at a low price, and risked everything on it.
Allen Lane, founder of Penguin Books

O my darling books…how dear to me are they all! For have I not chosen them one by one, gathered them in with the sweat of my brow? I do love you all! It seems as if, by long and sweet companionship, you had become part of myself.
Antoine Issac, Baron Silvestre de Sacy
