― Joseph Brodsky

Daphne du Maurier

― Daphne Du Maurier, Rebecca

Franklin D. Roosevelt
“I have an unshaken conviction that democracy can never be undermined if we maintain our library resources and a national intelligence capable of utilizing them."

Fred Rogers
“Most of us, I believe, admire strength. It's something we tend to respect in others, desire for ourselves, and wish for our children.

Real strength is neither male nor female; but it is, quite simply, one of the finest characteristics that a human being can possess.”
― Fred Rogers, The World According to Mister Rogers: Important Things to Remember
