quo.ta.bles
So often, a visit to a bookshop has cheered me, and reminded me that there are good things in the world.
― Vincent van Gogh

Invitation:
If you are a dreamer, come in
If you are a dreamer, a wisher, a liar,
A hope-er, a pray-er, a magic bean buyer...
If you're a pretender, come sit by the fire
For we have some flax-golden tales to spin.
Come in!
Come in!
-Shel Silverstein, Where the Sidewalk Ends

There is more treasure in books than in all the pirate's loot on Treasure Island.
