Quotes for Bookworms

While reading during my recent trip to New Zealand I read the following book-related quotes that I thought would be of interest to book lovers of all types:

"Good friends, good books, and a sleepy conscience: this is the ideal life." -- Mark Twain

"Wanting to meet a writer because you like their books is like wanting to meet a duck because you like pate." -- Margaret Atwood

"There's many a bestseller that could have been prevented by a good teacher." -- Flannery O'Connor

"A stand can be made against invasion by an army; no stand can be made against invasion by an idea." -- Victor Hugo

Ideas have consequences,

Todd
