Quote of the Day 5: I Am a Book Nerd
“Even when reading is impossible, the presence of books
acquired (by passionate devotion to them) produces such an
ecstasy that the buying of more books than one can
peradventure read is nothing less than the soul reaching
towards infinity … we cherish books even if unread, their
mere presence exudes comfort, their ready access,
reassurance.”
– A.E. Newton
I have always adored books, and was an avid reader from age two or earlier. I used to check out the maximum of 32 books from the public library. My pet topic in my early years was dinosaurs, and I was able to repeat a lot of the names of different types of dinos. It’s been an exciting reading journey since then, and I can completely identify with the quote above.
So many books, but such a short amount of time in life to read them all. I’ll never be done!
