“You can find magicwherever you look.Sit back and relax,all you need is a book.”

“Life is like yoga; the only way you can enjoy it is by relaxing into any position you happen to find yourself in.”

“As you grow ready for it, somewhere or other you will find what is needful for you in a book.”

“This book taught me, once and for all, how easily you can escape this world with the help of words! You can find friends between the pages of a book, wonderful friends.”

“Often the adult book is not for you, not yet, or will only be for you when you're ready. But sometimes you will read it anyway, and you will take from it whatever you can. Then, perhaps, you will come back to it when you're older, and you will find the book has changed because you have changed as well, and the book is wiser, or more foolish, because you are wiser or more foolish than you were as a child.”

“If you have a book, and an imagination, you can never find yourself alone. Ever.”
