“I think it is good that books still exist, but they do make me sleepy.”

“And how shall I think of you?' He considered a moment and then laughed. 'Think of me with my nose in a book!”

“Me and a book is a party. Me and a book and a cup of coffee is an orgy.”

“This book, when I am dead, will be
A little faint perfume of me.
People who knew me well will say,
She really used to think that way.”

“But I think the most important thing those books gave me was a kind of faith. My books promised me that life wasn’t just made up of workaday tasks and prosaic things. The world is bigger and more colorful and more important than that.”

“Think books aren't scary? Well, think about this: You can't spell "Book" without "Boo!”

“He made me think of all the books I hadn't read, and all the ones I'd read but hadn't fully understood.”

“All the world knows me in my book, and my book in me.”

“There are books that I own that somehow even without reading them they mean something to me. So I think people have a relationship with books in a library whether you’ve come specifically to read them or not.”
