Katharine Hepburn
“What in the world would we do without our libraries?”
Katharine Hepburn

Robin Sloan
“Walking the stacks in a library, dragging your fingers across the spines -- it's hard not to feel the presence of sleeping spirits.”
Robin Sloan, Mr. Penumbra's 24-Hour Bookstore

Graham Chapman
“You see, I don't belive that libraries should be drab places where people sit in silence, that has been the main reason for our policy of employing wild animals as librarians.”
Monty Python

Gerald Durrell
“I do wish you wouldn't argue with me when I'm knitting.”
Gerald Durrell, My Family and Other Animals

Garrison Keillor
“Librarians, Dusty, possess a vast store of politeness. These are people who get asked regularly the dumbest questions on God's green earth. These people tolerate every kind of crank and eccentric and mouth breather there is.”
Garrison Keillor, Dusty And Lefty: The Lives of the Cowboys
