“And most of all, books. They were, in and of themselves, reasons to stay alive. Every book written is the product of a human mind in a particular state. Add all the books together and you get the end sum of humanity. Every time I read a great book I felt I was reading a kind of map, a treasure map, and the treasure I was being directed to was in actual fact myself.”
― Matt Haig, Reasons to Stay Alive

“She is too fond of books, and it has turned her brain”
― Louisa May Alcott, Work: A Story of Experience

“We mustn’t give trouble a shape before it throws its shadow.”
― irene hunt, Across Five Aprils

“Some books are so familiar that reading them is like being home again.”
― Louisa May Alcott
