Book cover for The Personal Librarian
Each book in the library contained a world of personalities and stories and history. We shared an insatiable curiosity. The deeper we each read, the more we would understand about this world we live in, and the more questions we had.

Joseph Gordon-Levitt
“As my story came to a
close I realized that I was
the villain all along.”
Joseph Gordon-Levitt , The Tiny Book of Tiny Stories, Vol. 2

Terry Pratchett
“There would be a price... But if you were worried about the price, then why were you in the shop?”
Terry Pratchett, Equal Rites

Frances Hodgson Burnett
“At first people refuse to believe that a strange new thing can be done, then they begin to hope it can be done, then they see it can be done--then it is done and all the world wonders why it was not done centuries ago.”
Frances Hodgson Burnett, The Secret Garden

Michel Faber
“The word troubled her, though. ‘Indispensable.’ It was a word people tended to resort to when dispensability was in the air.”
Michel Faber, Under the Skin

Douglas Coupland
“Sometimes you accidentally input an extra digit into the year: i.e, 19993 and you add 18,000 years on to *now*, and you realize that the year 19993 will one day exist and that time is a scary thing, indeed.”
Douglas Coupland, Microserfs
