The source of the Thomas Caryle quote posted by Walter Cybulski is On
Heroes and Hero Worship, 1841, The Hero as Man of Letters. . Here is a
quote from Milton
"As good almost kill a man as kill a good book. Who kills a man kills a
reasonable creature, God's image; but he who destorys a good book kills
reason itself." (from Areopagitica, 1644)
