There are no such things as book hoarders, only aspiring librarians ~ Inafetse Santos

He sat there studiously bent over his work (Bill saw him), which lay in a slant of crisp white winterlight, his face sober and absorbed, knowing that to be a librarian was to come as close as any human being can to sitting in the peak-seat of eternity's engine. ~ Stephen King

If the Beast gave me a library like he gave to Belle, I'd marry him too. ~ Aya Ling

For all her faults, it was actually my mom who instilled in me a love of reading, and books, for which I will always be grateful. She's a complete bibliophile, so I've pretty much grown up around libraries and books. ~ Paula Gruben

I only had access to him when we were together in the library, and I loved them both -the library and my father- equally and without question. ~ Alice Hoffman

The library serves as a gathering place for friends who
share the love of books. It further serves as a resource for those who escape the pressure of everyday
life, doing it by losing themselves in the written word. ~ Kristen Ashley

I love books down to the full stops. I love them in a way that's beyond logic and reason. That's just the way it is. I love them the way those people in the Letter Library love them. It's not enough to read, I want to talk through the pages to get to the other side, to get to the person who read them before me. I want to spend my life hunting them, reading them, selling them. I want to serve customers and put the right book in their hands. I want it all. And I want it to go on forever. And if it can't last then I want to want it right up to the very final second. And I want a girl who wants me the same way. Dust and all. ~ Cath Crowley

What is the strongest pretext for loving? ... If it is necessary, our atomized consciousness invents love, imagines it or feigns it, but does not live without it, since in the midst of infinite dispersion, love, even if as a pretext , gives us the measure of our loss. ~ Carlos Fuentes

The media landscape of the present day is a map in search of a territory. A huge volume of sensational and often toxic imagery inundates our minds, much of it fictional in content. How do we make sense of this ceaseless flow of advertising and publicity, news and entertainment, where presidential campaigns and moon voyages are presented in terms indistinguishable from the launch of a new candy bar or deodorant? What actually happens on the level of our unconscious minds when, within minutes on the same TV screen, a prime minister is assassinated, an actress makes love, an injured child is carried from a car crash? Faced with these charged events, prepackaged emotions already in place, we can only stitch together a set of emergency scenarios, just as our sleeping minds extemporize a narrative from the unrelated memories that veer through the cortical night. In the waking dream that now constitutes everyday reality, images of a blood-spattered widow, the chromium trim of a limousine windshield, the stylised glamour of a motorcade, fuse together to provide a secondary narrative with very different meanings. ~ J.G. Ballard

Claybourne grabbed his arm, stopping his forward movement. "Do we have a plan?"

God must love the common man, he made so many of them. ~ Abraham Lincoln

I tried to make him a young court-wizard in my mind - he almost looked the part in his fine clothes, pursuing some lovely noblewoman - and there my imagination stumbled. He was a thing of books and alembics to me, library and laboratory. ~ Naomi Novik

That's the thing about love, you have to get lost to find someone you can trust. ~ Debasish Mridha

Yes, let her sleep
She can't figure out now,
not you, don't speak to her
that she doesn't feel this heart, anymore.
Wind, you too, She can't figure out now
she sleeps, sleeps and doesn't want this heart
Four winds and I'm alone,
my notes without luck
let her still sleep
let to die as soon as possible
this soul without love,
not you, don't give it
Time pass and don't speak
time pass and don't tell her ~ White Wind

For me, 'Lamb' started out as a further exploration of the phenomenon of faith and the responsibility of a messiah that I touched on in 'Coyote Blue' and 'Island of the Sequined Love Nun,' but it ended up being an exploration of the true meaning of sacrifice, loyalty, and friendship. ~ Christopher Moore

for longer than you think you
deserved
and with more
than you will ever know existed
inside
me. ~ Tyler Knott Gregson

I'm sentimental
I know. I'm desperate and silly
I know that too. Oh, help me! ~ Anne Frank

People didn't put pressure on me. I just played for the love of the game. ~ Hope Solo

I can tell you that the pain of living is worth it. That if you live, your life will be as full of love as it is darkness, and for every moment of pain, you'll have one of joy too. ~ Emily Henry

It was at this period that Drogo realised how far apart men are whatever their affection for each other, that if you suffer the pain is yours and yours alone, no one else can take upon himself the least part of it; that if you suffer it does not mean that others feel pain even though their love is great: hence the loneliness of life. ~ Dino Buzzati

Love is messy. I want that. ~ Leah Konen

Some people are destined to change the world. They give love. They have the power to forgive. They work hard for what they believe in. They gain the public's attention. They are the few people useful to society. These people must be supported since they are the ones that are valuable and have something to give back. Then there are all the rest that must support the few. These people must sacrifice themselves so that the good ones can be successful in life. Very stupid of me to think that I was the first kind of person. I am the second kind. ~ Niviaq Korneliussen

The reason you take antidepressants is to feel calm. And romantic love is not calm - it's elation, it's mood swings, and you're killing all that when you take the drug. ~ Helen Fisher

"Can I help?"
"Don't push me away," he said.
"I won't. I promise."
He was my other half, I'd take on the world for him. ~ Holly Evans

When I was a kid growing up in the '80s, the BBC showed those old Buster Crabbe serials like Flash Gordon and Buck Rogers. So instead of ponderous sci-fi or depressing sci-fi or dystopian sci-fi and all the things we're kind of used to, where it's always raining and it's always dark, I thought, "Wouldn't it be nice to do something that was just fun and absolutely nonstop?" Like, I love writing action, and this thing is that. It's all action. ~ Mark Millar

A relationship is about the first half being faithful to the second half, even if the second half has broken the first half's heart ~ Jordan Ganda

Ultimate reality is a community of persons who know and love one another. That is what the universe, God, history, and life is all about. If you favor money, power, and accomplishment over human relationships, you will dash yourself on the rocks of reality [ ... ]
[it is] impossible [ ... ] to stay fully human if you refuse the cost of forgiveness, the substitutional exchange of love, and the confinements of community.
[ ... ] We believe the world was made by a God who is a community of persons who have loved each other for all eternity. You were made for mutually self-giving, other directed love. Self-centeredness destroys the fabric of what God has made. ~ Timothy Keller

It occurred to me that some people couldn't handle too much love. That everyone loves as they're able, but more, they are loved as they're able. Some are indomitable and open, like an ocean, but others aren't made to tread those waves, cannot stay afloat those waters. We embrace the kind of love we can manage. Less can be the right measure. But when it isn't, we must learn we cannot squeeze a mountain into a room with a glass ceiling. Or everything shatters. ~ Jennifer DeLucy

Those who love, truly love, can be coerced into nothing. ~ Vironika Tugaleva

I am in love with his need ~ Margaret Atwood
