Where would the world be...

....without books?

Some inspiring and thought provoking quotes:

"The illiterate of the 21st century will not be those who cannot read and write, but those who cannot learn, unlearn, and relearn." Alvin Toffler

"I cannot live without books." Thomas Jefferson

"A library, to modify the famous metaphor of Socrates, should be the delivery room for the birth of ideas—a place where history comes to life." Norman Cousins

"We should not see print and electronic literature as in competition, but rather in conversation. The more voices that join in, the richer the dialogue is likely to be." N. Katherine Hayles

I will retire to read a good book.
