World After World

"For some of us, books are as important as almost anything else on earth. What a miracle it is that out of these small, flat, rigid squares of paper unfolds world after world after world, worlds that sing to you, comfort and quiet or excite you. books help us understand who we are and how we are to behave. They show us what community and friendship mean; they show us how to live and die."

  1. Nice to see another person who loves to read and has lots of books. :-) Although, I have been going through and getting rid of some. Not always easy, but it is a nice feeling to keep only the ones I truly want to have in my collection.

    Have a nice Friday and a great weekend ~ FlowerLady

  2. I have to do that too from time to time, and your right, it's not easy. But reading and books are such a gift. Have a wonderful weekend, FlowerLday.

  3. I have very few books anymore. I had most of my books stored in boxes and after the flood they all mildewed. Such a loss.

  4. Oh, Barbara. That is a loss, but there's always the library; the next best thing.
