who browses the shelf
and looks for new worlds

“Tautas dzīve ir kā bulta. Ir brīdis, kad liktenis ir tautas ziņā, kad sabiedriskie spēki ir nospriegoti kā uzvilkts loks, kad pati tauta izvēlas mērķi, kad bultas lidojums un tālums ir paredzams. Kad bulta ir izšauta, to atgriezt nevar nekāds spēks, ne lūgšanas, ne pavēles.”
― Alberts Bels, Cilvēki laivās
