Quote of the Month

“To read is to fly: it is to soar to a point of vantage which gives a view over wide terrains of history, human variety, ideas, shared experience and the fruits of many inquiries.” 
 - A C Grayling, Financial Times (in a review of A History of Reading by Alberto Manguel)

I love to read as I would imagine all of you do, what would it be like without books.  
The world would be dark and empty to me.  How about you?

    Without books the world would be like fahrenheit 451. Quite scary huh?
