Books constitute capital. A library book lasts as long as a house, for hundreds of years. It is not, then, an article of mere consumption but fairly of capital, and often in the case of professional men, setting out in life, it is their only capital.

  • -- Thomas Jefferson 托马斯·杰斐逊

书籍构成的资本。图书馆里的书可以和房子一样长，可以保存几百年。因此，它不仅是一种消费工具，而且是一种相当可观的资本，而且就职业人士而言，它往往是他们人生中唯一的资本。
