Library District

Famous quotes containing the words library and/or district:

“That a famous library has been cursed by a woman is a matter of complete indifference to a famous library. Venerable and calm, with all its treasures safe locked within its breast, it sleeps complacently and will, so far as I am concerned, so sleep forever. Never will I wake these echoes, never will I ask for that hospitality again ...”
—Virginia Woolf (1882–1941)

“Most works of art, like most wines, ought to be consumed in the district of their fabrication.”
