“Schools and libraries are the twin cornerstones of a civilized society. Libraries are only good if people use them, like books only exist when someone reads them.”
Nicholas Meyer
“Idiots are the kind of people who don't understand your clever come-backs.”
J C A Rowe
“The school district doesn't have to be the provider. We will work with a consortium of people to use libraries and universities to house pre-K programs.”
Roger Tilles
“I went to a bookstore and asked the saleswoman, "Where's the self-help section?" She said if she told me, it would defeat the purpose”
George Carlin
“With a library you are free, not confined by temporary political climates. It is the most democratic of institutions because no one - but no one at all - can tell you what to read and when and how.”
Doris Lessing
“A library implies an act of faith”
Victor Hugo
“The library is the temple of learning, and learning has liberated more people than all the wars in history.”
