“Get black on white.”
― Guy de Maupassant

“After the birth of printing books became widespread. Hence everyone throughout Europe devoted himself to the study of literature... Every year, especially since 1563, the number of writings published in every field is greater than all those produced in the past thousand years. The Paracelsians have created medicine anew and the Copernicans have created astronomy anew. I really believe that at last the world is alive, indeed seething, and that the stimuli of these remarkable conjunctions did not act in vain.”
― Johannes Kepler

“There's nothing like a printed book; the weight, the woody scent, the feel, the look.”
― E.A. Bucchianeri

“The digital revolution is far more significant than the invention of writing or even of printing.”
― Douglas Engelbart

“There's no point in writing my kind of stuff, when they're printing that kind of stuff. So I gave up and started drinking.”
― Charles Bukowski

“Books were a dirty job, one of the black arts, along with witchcraft and printing.”
― Sara Gran, The Book of the Most Precious Substance

“Though an angel should write, still 'tis devils must print”
― Matthew Pearl, The Last Bookaneer

“Technically, you cannot really own a book you bought; you can only own the sheets of paper your copy is printed on; unless, of course, you are the book鈥檚 publisher.”
― Mokokoma Mokhonoana, The Selfish Genie: A Satirical Essay on Altruism

“Printing meant arranging the letters into words, the words into perfectly straight lines, and the lines into even blocks of text to be inked and pressed onto paper or vellum. And each small step of the process, which sounds so mundane today, required invention.”
― Margaret Leslie Davis, The Lost Gutenberg: The Astounding Story of One Book's Five-Hundred-Year Odyssey

“In French printer's jargon, cliche (which mimicked the sound of a mold striking molten metal) was a synonym for stereotype, which in turn evolved from the Greek for "solid impression." A stereotype was a printing plate that duplicated typography and that was used by the printer in lieu of the original.
So a cliche is a word or phrase used over and over again in lieu of the original.”
― Constance Hale, Sin and Syntax: How to Craft Wickedly Effective Prose

“Among the many things that I showed Sir John [Herschel] while at Hammerfield, was a piece of white calico on which I had got printed one million spots. This was for the purpose of exhibiting one million in visible form. In astronomical subjects a million is a sort of unit, and it occurred to me to show what a million really is. Sir John was delighted and astonished at the sight. He went carefully over the outstretched piece with his rule, measured its length and breadth, and verified its correctness.”
― James Nasmyth, James Nasmyth, Engineer: An Autobiography

“It's possible to walk out of your house with "local" footsteps, printing them one by one till they go on to make "global" consequences! Go, make a safe journey!”
― Israelmore Ayivor, The Great Hand Book of Quotes

“If e-book readers were invented before print books, (petty things such as) the smell of ink would have been some people鈥檚 only reason for not abandoning e-books.”
― Mokokoma Mokhonoana

“L鈥檜tilizzo di ontologie aumenta cos矛 le potenzialit脿 delle ricerche in rete poich茅 consente agli strumenti di ricerca di 鈥渞agionare鈥� su una sorta di mappa delle risorse fino a trovare quelle realmente rilevanti: questo naturalmente garantisce risultati molto pi霉 precisi di quelli prodotti dalle ricerche basate sugli indici e sulle parole chiave. Inoltre, dal momento che l鈥檕ntologia pu貌 descrivere il contenuto di ogni tipo di documento (quindi anche un file musicale, oppure video), il campo della ricerca viene esteso ad un gran numero di sorgenti e formati differenti, anche diversi delle tradizionali pagine web."

La conclusione da tirare da tutto questo 猫 che il mondo dell'editoria 猫 una realt脿 in continua ebollizione. Un vero e proprio magma incandescente che mi ricorda il piombo fondente della linotype e il calore che trasmetteva quella riga di piombo appena uscita dalla sua fornace. Conservo ancora gelosamente una riga di piombo uscita da una linotype del "Times" di Londra con sopra il mio nome e la data della visita che facemmo al giornale durante un corso organizzato dalla BBC circa quaranta anni fa. Piombo bollente allora, piombo freddo museale oggi.”
― Springer-Verlag

“Gutenberg, Johannes Gutenberg, was the name of that man the devil had intoxicated with Rhine wine in Mainz in 1450, ordering him to invent a new torture for the illiterate and slow-witted.”
― J贸zef Wittlin, S贸l ziemi

“..the kind of influence printing has had on modern sensibility鈥� : the shattering of the intellectual experience into uniform and repeatable units, the establishment of a sense of homogeneity and continuity that generated, at a distance of centuries, the assembly line, and presided over the ideology of the mechanical age, as well as the cosmology of infinitesimal calculation.”
― Umberto Eco, Travels In Hyperreality

“If you dipped a spider in ink and then let it breakdance on a clean sheet of paper, you'd have a fair approximation of the state of my handwriting. I blame the internet myself. If I had to publish things in my handwriting, the only thing I could make money at would be selling ransom notes.”
― Stewart Stafford

“POD books are like snowflakes. Every book can be a tiny bit different.”
― David Wogahn

“Printing is an Art first and Industry afterwards”
― Kamal

“How many subscribers do you have left, anyway? Isn't print dying? How long until it's actually dead and you're out of a job?”
― Amanda Elliot, Best Served Hot
