“Countless writers express countless ideas on so many bits of paper, and at some unknown moment some specific book, even some specific sentence, will be the right one for the right person. We never know when some scrap of literature will have its finest hour.”

“Sheltered spots tend to increase your fear, the fear of the unknown perils of outside,
a fear that simply regenerates and reinforces itself until it becomes overwhelming,
making you incapable of drawing conclusions about what's really taking place outside.”
― László Krasznahorkai, Chasing Homer

“A fantastic librarian can help you find what you are looking for, and not just if it is a book. A fantastic librarian can help you find a hobby or an occupation, a cure or a challenge, a quiet fact or a loud opinion, or a small town where you might hide for months. A fantastic librarian knows more about what you are looking for than you do, the way a cookie in a bakery knows you want to eat it before you even know it is out of the oven, and like a good cookie, a fantastic librarian doesn’t show off about it, just waits silently for you to open your mouth.”
― Lemony Snicket, Poison for Breakfast
