Words on the Nature of Books

'"This is a place of mystery, Daniel, a sanctuary.  Every book, every volume you see here, has a soul.  the soul of the person who wrote it and of those who read it and lived and dreamed with it.  Every time a book changes hands,every time somene runs his eyes down its pages, its spirit grows and stregthens."'
