“To sit alone in the lamplight with a book spread out before you, and hold intimate converse with men of unseen generations-such is a pleasure beyond compare.”
Lucia St Clair Robson

“As a librarian I learned one of life’s great truths: you don’t have to know all the answers, you just have to know where to find them.”
Lucia St. Clair Robson

“And now everyone’s afraid of everyone else. A child with diarrhea is abandoned. A grandmother who vomits is left to die. The People are losing touch with their old ways. Fear is driving them from the traditions that have made them strong.”
Lucia St. Clair Robson, Ride the Wind
