“If you take a book with you on a journey,” Mo had said when he put the first one in her box, “an odd thing happens: The book begins collecting your memories. And forever after you have only to open that book to be back where you first read it. It will all come into your mind with the very first words: the sights you saw in that place, what it smelled like, the ice cream you ate while you were reading it … yes, books are like flypaper—memories cling to the printed page better than anything else.”

“Some books should be tasted some devoured, but only a few should be chewed and digested thoroughly.”
― Cornelia Funke, Inkheart

“When you open the book it’s like going to the theater. First you see the curtain. Then it’s pulled aside and the show begins.”
― Cornelia Funke, The Inkheart Collection
