A fabulous quote

Books are the carriers of civilization...They are companions, teachers, magicians, bankers of the treasures of the mind. Books are humanity in print.
- Barbara W. Tuchman

Books are such a precious commodity. They inspire, befriend, challenge, teach, take our imaginations to greater levels and are read only by the human species. We need to buy, lend, loan, share and purpose never to let our precious books become obsolete. We must commit ourselves to the printed word and make a pact with other readers of the word to never, ever let those reading embers go out. Today commit yourself to read and pass the joy and knowledge of reading on to a new generation. Blow on those embers to create an even bigger of fire that will glow into the future generations and beyond. Read on.
