“What really knocks me out is a book that, when you're all done reading it, you wish the author that wrote it was a terrific friend of yours and you could call him up on the phone whenever you felt like it. That doesn't happen much, though.”
― J.D. Salinger, The Catcher in the Rye

“A children's story that can only be enjoyed by children is not a good children's story in the slightest.”
― C.S. Lewis

“We read to know we're not alone.”
― William Nicholson, Shadowlands: A Play

“Books are the quietest and most constant of friends; they are the most accessible and wisest of counselors, and the most patient of teachers.”
― Charles W. Eliot
