For all books are divisible into two classes, the books of the hour, and the books of all time. Mark this distinction -- it is not one of quality only. It is not merely the bad book that does not last, and the good one that does. It is a distinction of species. There are good books for the hour, and good ones for all time; bad books for the hour, and bad ones for all time.
