“Book-burners try to destroy ideas that differ from their own. Reading does the opposite. It encourages doubt... reading releases you from the limits of yourself.”
John Carey

Francesco Petrarca
“I cannot have a sufficiency of books. Indeed, I have more than I should...

Francesco Petrarca, Selected Letters, Volume 1
