So there you have it, a lifetime of first smelling the books, they all smell wonderful, reading the books, loving the books, and remembering the books.

Fame and money are gifts given to us only after we have gifted the world with our best, our lonely, our individual truths.

You've got to jump off cliffs and build your wings on the way down.

You knew the sweetness of now, now, TONIGHT! who cares for tomorrow, tomorrow is nothing, yesterday is over and done, tonight live, tonight!

Reading is at the center of our lives. The library is our brain. Without the library, you have no civilization.

Suddenly the day was gone, night came out from under each tree and spread.

If you don't want a man unhappy politically, don't give him two sides to a question to worry him; give him one. Better yet, give him none.
