Arturo Pérez-Reverte
“Excellent papier. Rien à voir avec les pâtes mécaniques d'aujourd'hui... Vous savez quelle est la durée de vie moyenne d'un livre imprimé à l'heure actuelle ?... Dis lui, Pablo.
- Soixante-dix ans, répondit l'autre avec rancœur, comme si Corso était le coupable. Soixante-dix misérables années.
Le frère aîné cherchait quelque chose parmi les objets dispersés sur la table. Finalement, il s'empara d'une loupe spéciale à fort grossissement et l'approcha du livre.
- Dans moins d'un siècle, murmura-t-il tandis qu'il soulevait une page pour l'étudier à contre-jour en fermant un œil, presque tout ce qui se trouve aujourd'hui dans les librairies aura disparu. Mais ces volumes imprimés il y a deux cents ou cinq cents ans, demeureront intacts... Nous avons les livres, comme le monde, que nous méritons... N'est-ce pas, Pablo ?
- Des livres de merde pour un monde de merde.”
Arturo Pérez-Reverte, The Club Dumas

Fyodor Dostoevsky
“Because reading books and having them bound represent two enormously different stages of development. First, people gradually get used to reading, over centuries naturally, but they don't take care of their books and toss them around. Having books bound signifies respect for the book; it indicates that people not only love to read, but they view it an important occupation. Nowhere in Russia has that stage been reached. Europe has been binding its books for sometime.”
Fyodor Dostoyevsky, Demons
