We need fairy tales, beauty; we need to be able to imagine that oak tree in the French forest, see drawings of it, smell the scent of its leaves through the medium of poetry and stories, and – most essential of all – have a good book ready to hand in case we find that tree in real life and want to settle down in its shade to read.

― Ragnar Jónasson, The Mysterious Case of the Missing Crime Writer
