The Writing Center: Those Seminar Friends

We spent a lot of intense time together. Some days were good, and some were not so good, and some flew around the moon and landed us square on our feet.

Heaven, EmPo?

BOOKS

--"Books can be dangerous. The best ones should be labeled 'This could change your life.'" Helen Exley
--"Medicine for the soul." ~Inscription over the door of the Library at Thebes
--"Books let us into their souls and lay open to us the secrets of our own." William Hazlitt
--"The smallest bookstore still contains more ideas of worth than have been presented in the entire history of television." Andrew Ross
--"To sit alone in the lamplight with a book spread out before you, and hold intimate converse with men [and women] of unseen generations -- such is a pleasure beyond compare."
Kenko Yoshida
--"Fiction reveals truths that reality obscures."
Jessamyn West
--". . . there is nothing more wonderful than a book! A message to us from the dead-- from human souls whom we never saw, who lived perhaps thousands of miles away; and yet these, on those little sheets of paper, speak to us, teach us, comfort us, open their hearts to us as brothers [& sisters]." ~Charles Kingsley
