“If you cannot read all your books...fondle them---peer into them, let them fall open where they will, read from the first sentence that arrests the eye, set them back on the shelves with your own hands, arrange them on your own plan so that you at least know where they are. Let them be your friends; let them, at any rate, be your acquaintances.”
― Winston S. Churchill

“My thoughts about human happiness, for some peculiar reason, had always been tinged with a certain sadness.”
― Anton Chekhov, The Lady With the Little Dog and Other Stories, 1896-1904

“Life is too short to read a bad book.”
― James Joyce

“Books mean all possibilities. They mean moving out of yourself, losing yourself, dying of thirst and living to your full. They mean everything.”
― Ali Smith
