Lemony Snicket
“It is likely I will die next to a pile of things I was meaning to read.”
Lemony Snicket

Roald Dahl
“I was observing her closely as I talked, and after a while I began to get the impression that she was not, in fact, quite so merry and smiling a girl as I had been led to believe at first. She seemed to be coiled in herself, as though with a secret she was jealously guarding.

Roald Dahl, Someone Like You

Hermann Hesse
“I have no right to call myself one who knows. I was one who seeks, and I still am, but I no longer seek in the stars or in books; I'm beginning to hear the teachings of my blood pulsing within me.

Hermann Hesse, Demian: Die Geschichte von Emil Sinclairs Jugend

Lemony Snicket
“When trouble strikes, head to the library. You will either be able to solve the problem, or simply have something to read as the world crashes down around you.”
Lemony Snicket

Lemony Snicket
“The worst surroundings in the world can be tolerated if the people in them are interesting and kind.”
Lemony Snicket, The Bad Beginning
