Mortimer J. Adler
“In the case of good books, the point is not to see how many of them you can get through, but rather how many can get through to you.”
Mortimer J. Adler

Albert Einstein
“How can cosmic religious feeling be communicated from one person to another, if it can give rise to no definite notion of a God and no theology? In my view, it is the most important function of art and science to awaken this feeling and keep it alive in those who are receptive to it.”
Albert Einstein, The World As I See It

Logan Pearsall Smith
“What I like in a good author is not what he says, but what he whispers.”
Logan Pearsall Smith, All trivia: Trivia, More trivia, Afterthoughts, Last words

Rabindranath Tagore
“Clouds come floating into my life, no longer to carry rain or usher storm, but to add color to my sunset sky.”
Rabindranath Tagore, Stray Birds

Anaïs Nin
“We don't see things as they are, we see them as we are.”
Anaïs Nin
