A good book is always on tap; it may be decanted and drunk a hundred times, and it is still there for further imbibement. A large, still book is a piece of quietness, succulent and nourishing in a noisy world, which I approach and imbibe with a sort of greedy enjoyment, as Marcel Proust said of those rooms of his old home whose air was saturated with the bouquet of silence. Man is a dog's idea of what God should be. No man is ever old enough to know better. What a mother sings to the cradle goes all the way down to the coffin. Your library is your portrait. |
