Reading Books Is Good, Rereading Good Books

Believers And Doers Are What We Need - Faithful Librarians Who Are Humble In The Presence Of Books.... To Be In A Library Is One Of The Purest Of All Experiences. This Awareness Of Library's Unique, Even Sacred Nature, Is What Should Be Instilled In Our Neophites.

I Have Always Been Reconciled To The Fact That I Was Born A Bibliomaniac, Never Have I Sought A Cure, And My Dearest Friends Have Been Drawn From Those Likewise Suffering From Book Madness.

No University In The World Has Ever Risen To Greatness Without A Correspondingly Great Library... When This Is No Longer True, Then Will Our Civilization Have Come To An End.

Books, Books, Books In All Their Aspects, In Form And Spirit, Their Physical Selves And What Reading Releases From Their Hieroglyphic Pages, In Their Sight And Smell, In Their Touch And Feel To The Questing Hand, And In The Intellectual Music Which They Sing To The Thoughtful Brain And Loving Heart, Books Are To Me The Best Of All Symbols, The Realest Of All Reality.

Books Themselves Need No Defense. Their Spokesmen Come And Go, Their Readers Live And Die, They Remain Constant.
