In A Library, No Empty Shelf Remains

Existing Libraries, In Their Very Being, Seem To Question The Authority Of Those In Power.

Every Reader Exists To Ensure For A Certain Book A Modest Immortality. Reading Is, In This Sense, A Ritual Of Rebirth.

A Society Can Exist - Many Do Exist - Without Writing, But No Society Can Exist Without Reading.

The Listeners Who Buy Books After A Reading Multiply That Reading; The Author Who Realizes That He Or She May Be Writing On A Blank Page But Is At Least Not Speaking To A Blank Wall May Be Encouraged By The Experience, And Write More.
