Gilbert K. Chesterton Quotes:

Ocupation: Writer

Life: May 29, 1874 - June 14, 1936

Birthday: May 29

Death: June 14

The sincere love of books has nothing to do with cleverness or stupidity any more than any other sincere love. It is a quality of character, a freshness, a power of pleasure, a power of faith. A silly person may delight in reading masterpieces just as a silly person may delight in picking flowers. A fool may be in love with a poet as he may be in love with a woman.
