― Lemony Snicket, Horseradish: Bitter Truths You Can't Avoid

“Every generation imagines itself to be more intelligent than the one that went before it, and wiser than the one that comes after it.”

“A library is a good place to go when you feel unhappy, for there, in a book, you may find encouragement and comfort. A library is a good place to go when you feel bewildered or undecided, for there, in a book, you may have your question answered. Books are good company, in sad times and happy times, for books are people - people who have managed to stay alive by hiding between the covers of a book."

[Letters of Note; Troy (MI, USA) Public Library, 1971]”
