“I was a little ashamed of myself for not thinking earlier I should go to the library… but I comforted myself by remembering that the library was not open early in the morning, presumably so the fantastic librarians can eat a hearty breakfast to gather their strengths.”
― Lemony Snicket, Poison for Breakfast

“A fantastic librarian can help you find what you are looking for, and not just if it is a book. A fantastic librarian can help you find a hobby or an occupation, a cure or a challenge, a quiet fact or a loud opinion, or a small town where you might hide for months. A fantastic librarian knows more about what you are looking for than you do, the way a cookie in a bakery knows you want to eat it before you even know it is out of the oven, and like a good cookie, a fantastic librarian doesn’t show off about it, just waits silently for you to open your mouth.”
― Lemony Snicket, Poison for Breakfast

“It is likely I will die next to a pile of things I was meaning to read.”
― Lemony Snicket

“I watched her eyes sweep across the scrap of paper more than twice. A fantastic librarian reads everything two times at least.”
― Lemony Snicket, Poison for Breakfast
