Could someone track down the "I don't see any wooden legs" quote, please? — Bobby D. Bryant 11:14, 12 Feb 2004 (UTC)

I'm eager to know this too.[edit]

I've also heard it attributed to Anatole France and Sartre. Is it apocryphal?

"We are like books"[edit]

I have seen the quote "We are like books. Most people only see our cover, the minority read only the introduction, many people believe the critics. Few will know our content." attributed to Zola in many places, but I don't see anything close to an actual cited source anywhere. Can anyone validate or debunk this?
