“Every book, every volume you see here, has a soul. The soul of the person who wrote it and of those who read it and lived and dreamed with it. Every time a book changes hands, every time someone runs his eyes down its pages, its spirit grows and strengthens.”

“What a blessing it is to love books as I love them;- to be able to converse with the dead, and to live amidst the unreal!”
