Kindle Notes & Highlights
“Books are a way we leave a mark on the world, aren’t they? They say we were here, we loved and we grieved and we laughed and we made mistakes and we existed. They can be burned halfway across the world, but the words cannot be unread, the stories cannot be untold. They do live on in this library, but more importantly they are immortalized in anyone who has read them.”
words cannot be unwritten simply because you burn them. Ideas cannot simply be erased. People cannot be erased.”
“Burning books about things you do not like or understand does not mean those things no longer exist.”
