Heres a couple of quotes on books that you may enjoy...
How many a man has dated a new era in his life from the reading of a book?
~ Henry David Thoreau
Make books your companions; let your bookshelves be your gardens; bask in their beauty, gather their fruit, pluck their roses, take their spices and myrrh
~ Samuel ben Judah ibn Tibbon
A good book is the best of friends, the same today and forever
~ Martin Farquhar Tupper
Books are the quietest and most constant of friends; they are the most accessible and wisest of counsellors, and the most patient of teachers
~ Charles W. Eliot
we rely upon the poets, the philosophers, and the playwrights to articulate what most of us only feel, in joy or sorrow. They illuminate the thoughts for which we only grope; they give us the strength and balm we cannot find in ourselves. Whenever I feel my courage wavering I rush to them. They give me the wisdom of acceptance, the will and resilence to push on
~ Helen Hayes
