My Ideal Bookshelf Quotes

“I think books find their way to you when you need them. Whenever I feel like I'm not going to live to read all the books I want to read, I remind myself that the important ones find their way to me" (Rosanne Cash (Musician/Write)”
― Rosanne Cash, My Ideal Bookshelf

“The thing about this bookshelf is that each of these books is a vast experience unto itself, while also being both self-contained and superbly useless. Reading any one of them doesn't get you anywhere particularly meaningful; you haven't arrived or graduated; you've just gone and done something that passed the time. It's like taking a long walk with a friend who's got a lot to say. There's not cumulative purpose to it - it's just an excellent way to waste your life.”
― Jonathan Lethem, My Ideal Bookshelf

“The world becomes more rewarding if you let yourself look beyond what you're searching for.”
― Thessaly La Force, My Ideal Bookshelf
