“Books are my friends, my companions. They make me laugh and cry and find meaning in life.”

“Because you can't argue with all the fools in the world. It's easier to let them have their way, then trick them when they're not paying attention.”

“Books should go where they will be most appreciated, and not sit unread, gathering dust on a forgotten shelf, don't you agree?”

“Ah, pay no heed if your enemies laugh. They'll not be able to once you lop off their heads.”
