—Henry David Thoreau (18171862)
“Be a little careful about your library. Do you foresee what you will do with it? Very little to be sure. But the real question is, What it will do with you? You will come here and get books that will open your eyes, and your ears, and your curiosity, and turn you inside out or outside in.”
—Ralph Waldo Emerson (18031882)
“Good books do not make people wiser or happieronly more conscious.”
—Mason Cooley (b. 1927)
