Quote★★★★
Except a living man there is nothing more wonderful than a book! a message to us from the dead from human souls we never saw, who lived, perhaps, thousands of miles away. And yet these, in those little sheets of paper, speak to us, arouse us, terrify us, teach us, comfort us, open their hearts to us as brothers.
Charles Kingsley
The point
Books are wondrous messages from the dead, from human souls across time and distance, who speak to us, arouse us, teach us, and comfort us like brothers.
