Maurice Sendak
“A book is really like a lover. It arranges itself in your life in a way that is beautiful. Even as a kid, my sister, who was the eldest, brought books home for me, and I think I spent more time sniffing and touching them than reading. I just remember the joy of the book, the beauty of the binding. The smelling of the interior. Happy."

[Interview with Emma Brockes, The Believer, November/December, 2012]”

“The soft throb and glow roused in my breast by the gilt letters of four or five different languages winking at me from scores of handsomely tooled bindings—the sight of so much knowledge so beautifully presented—swiftly flamed out.”
Ross King, Ex-Libris

Mary Karr
“The words and sentences you take into your body from books are no less sacred and healing than communion. Surely at least one such person lives in your zip code.”
Mary Karr, Cherry

“Some books make us dream, others bring us face to face with reality, but what matters most to the author is the honesty with which a book is written.”
