Reading is essential for those who seek to rise above the ordinary. It is the most crucial element in the education of a man or woman. Through books, we can leap across centuries, cultures, and continents, and experience lives that are wildly different from our own.

- Jim Rohn

One glance at a book and you hear the voice of another person, perhaps someone dead for 1,000 years. To read is to voyage through time.

– Carl Sagan

Show me a family of readers, and I will show you the people who move the world.

– Napoleon Bonaparte

Books can be dangerous. The best ones should be labeled 'This could change your life.'
