Where is human nature so weak as in the bookstore?
Henry Ward Beecher

In fact, I am off to the bookstore this afternoon. For those that want to know what I am in the middle of, I am currently reading World War Z: An Oral History of the Zombie War as well as Jonathan Strange & Mr Norrell: A Novel. But I am the type of person that isn’t happy unless my nightstand is groaning under the weight of all of the books it has on it.

I find television very educating. Every time somebody turns on the set, I go into the other room and read a book.
Groucho Marx

There is a great deal of difference between an eager man who wants to read a book and the tired man who wants a book to read.
G. K. Chesterton

Don’t join the book burners. Don’t think you’re going to conceal faults by concealing evidence that they ever existed. Don’t be afraid to go in your library and read every book…
Dwight D. Eisenhower

All of the presidents of this country have some amazing quotes, some just sing truer to my heart and soul.

A room without books is like a body without a soul.
Cicero

There is no mistaking a real book when one meets it. It is like falling in love.
Christopher Morley
