“Books Fall OpenBooks fall open,you fall in,delighted where,you've never been.Hear voices not once heard before,Reach world through world,through door on door.Find unexpected keys to things,locked up beyond imaginings….True books will venture,Dare you out,Whisper secrets,Maybe shout,across the gloom,to you in needWho hanker fora book to read.”
“Books and doors are the same thing. You open them, and you go through into another world.”
“Fall asleep reading a good book and you enter a world of dreams; fall asleep in a film and you miss the end.”
“Books fall open, you fall in”
“I cannot imagine not reading. Some books, of course, are like lovers; you go to bed with them once and fall asleep immediately...But other books become house guests. THey take up residence in the rooms of the mond and never leave.”
“Books fall open, you fall in. When you climb out again, you're a bit larger than you used to be.”
