My antiquarian books

my bedroom book wall

A Good Book

"Books to the ceiling,
Books to the sky,
My pile of books is a mile high.
How I love them!
How I need them!
I'll have a long beard
by the time I read them."
Arnold Lobel

Reading in winter.

"I would be most content if my children grew up to be the kind of people who think decorating consists mostly of building enough bookshelves." Anna Quindlen

Book Baby

"A room without books is like a body without a soul."
Cicero (106 BC - 43 BC) attributed

"Wear the old coat and buy the new book." Austin Phelps

Wish or Work

"I'm a great believer in luck and I find the harder I work, the more I have of it." Thomas Jefferson

"There is no substitute for hard work."
Thomas Edison 1847-1931 American inventor

"You'll never succeed in idealizing hard work. Before you can dig mother earth you've got to take off your ideal jacket. The harder a man works at brute labor, the thinner becomes his idealism, the darker his mind." D. H. Lawrence
