Jay Kristoff
“Don't fuck with librarians, young lady. We know the power of words.”
Jay Kristoff, Darkdawn

Alechia Dow
“Until I became a librarian, I didn't know I was a rebel.”
Alechia Dow, The Sound of Stars

Dorothy L. Sayers
“Facts are like cows. If you look them in the face long enough, they generally run away.”
Dorothy L. Sayers

Terry Pratchett
“Not long ago I was invited to a librarians’ event by a lady who cheerfully told me, “We like to think of ourselves as ‘information providers.’” I was appalled by this want of ambition; I made my excuses and didn’t go. After all, if you have a choice, why not call yourselves “Shining Acolytes of the Sacred Flame of Literacy in a Dark and Encroaching Universe”? I admit this is hard to put on a button, so why not abbreviate it to “librarians”?”
Terry Pratchett, A Slip of the Keyboard: Collected Non-Fiction

Dorothy L. Sayers
“A man was taken to the Zoo and shown the giraffe. After gazing at it a little in silence: 'I don't believe it,' he said.”
Dorothy L. Sayers, Clouds of Witness
