(4/25) Where do ideas come from? Norman Cousins

A library is 
the delivery room
 for the birth of ideas, 
a place where 
history comes to life.

(4/2) International Children's Book Day ... Charles Kuralt on reading


I wasn't a very discerning reader.
I read just about everything
that came along.

(2/13) Library Lover's Day ... one day early ... Charles Kuralt

I remember being in 
the public library 
and my jaw just aching 
as I looked around 
at all those books 
I wanted to read. 
There just wasn't 
time enough 
to read everything 
I wanted to read.
