Quotes of the week for May

Week 1

Books have to be read (worse luck it takes so long a time). It is the only way of discovering what they contain. A few savage tribes eat them, but reading is the only method of assimilation revealed to the West.
~E.M. Forster

Weeks 2 & 3

Until I feared I would lose it, I never loved to read. One does not love breathing.

~Harper Lee
(I believe the above quote may have been taken from the book,"To Kill a Mockingbird." I'm not positive though.)

Week 4

From my point of view, a book is a literary prescription put up for the benefit of someone who needs it.
~S.M. Crothers
