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
