Elie Wiesel
“What is man? Dust turned to hope.”
Elie Wiesel, The Gates of the Forest

Walker Percy
“God, if you recall, did not warn his people against dirty books. He warned them against high places.”
Walker Percy, Love in the Ruins

Susan Orlean
“The library is a gathering pool of narratives and of the people who come to find them. It is where we can glimpse immortality; in the library, we can live forever.”
Susan Orlean, The Library Book

Susan Orlean
“In Senegal, the polite expression for saying someone died is to say his or her library has burned. When I first heard the phrase, I didn’t understand it, but over time I came to realize it was perfect. Our minds and souls contain volumes inscribed by our experiences and emotions; each individual’s consciousness is a collection of memories we’ve cataloged and stored inside us, a private library of a life lived.”
Susan Orlean, The Library Book

Edgar Kunz
“… and the afternoon stretching on into no kind of heaven I could have understood then.”
Edgar Kunz, Tap Out: Poems – Julia Ward Howe Award Winner: Gritty Narrative Verse on Heritage, Shame, and Class Mobility
