Never lend books - nobody ever returns them; the only books I have in my library are those which people have lent me.

Anatole France

Anatole France (16 April 1844 – 12 October 1924), born Jacques Anatole François Thibault, was a French poet, journalist, and novelist. Ironic and skeptical, he was considered in his day the ideal French man of letters. A member of the Académie française, he won the 1921 Nobel Prize in Literature in recognition of his literary achievements. He is widely believed to be the model for the narrator's literary idol "Bergotte" in Marcel Proust's In Search of Lost Time.

    هرگز کتاب ها را قرض ندهید - هیچ کس هرگز آنها را پس نمی دهد. تنها کتاب‌هایی که در کتابخانه‌ام دارم، کتاب‌هایی هستند که مردم به من امانت داده‌اند.

    ne prêtez jamais de livres - personne ne les rend jamais; les seuls livres que j'ai dans ma bibliothèque sont ceux que les gens m'ont prêtés.

    کبھی بھی کتابیں قرض نہ دیں - کوئی بھی انہیں واپس نہیں کرتا ہے۔ میرے پاس میری لائبریری میں صرف کتابیں وہ ہیں جو لوگوں نے مجھے دیا ہے۔
