Monday's special
A room without books is like a body without a soul.
Cicero
Nothing can do what a book can do. Lifts you out of your life... to a whole new world, whole new perspective. A book is like a dream you're borrowing from a friend.
Dave Kellett
Books...are like lobster shells, we surround ourselves with 'em, then we grow out of 'em and leave 'em behind, as evidence of our earlier stages of development.
Dorothy L. Sayers
All good books are alike in that they are truer than if they had really happened and after you are finished reading one you will feel that all that happened to you and afterwards it all belongs to you; the good and the bad, the ecstasy, the remorse and sorrow, the people and the places and how the weather was.
Ernest Hemingway
A good novel tells us the truth about its hero; but a bad novel tells us the truth about its author.
G. K. Chesterton
The books that help you the most are those which make you think the most.
Theodore Parker
You know you've read a good book when you turn the last page and feel a little as if you have lost a friend.
Paul Sweeney
