Books are how our ancestors passed their knowledge to us. It is how the human race tells its' story. They offer us wisdom, laughter, tears, great beauty, excitement and a glimpse into our fantasies, dreams and our hearts' desire. It can truly be said, that a good book is like a dear friend.

Calling all Bibliophiles!  If you have the "affliction" of being a bibliophile or have progressed to bibliomania, then come on in and meet some fellow sufferers! 

"Books, books, books had found the secret of a garret-room piled high with cases in my father's name; Piled high, packed large, --where, creeping in and out among the giant fossils of my past, like some small nimble mouse between the ribs of a mastodon, I nibbled here and there at this or that box, pulling through the gap, in heats of terror, haste, victorious joy, the first book first. And how I felt it beat under my pillow, in the morning's dark. An hour before the sun would let me read! My books!"
    -- Elizabeth Barrett Browning 

"When you reread a classic, you do not see more in the book than you did before; you see more in you than there was before."
    -- Cliff Fadiman 

"The man who does not read good books has no advantage over the man who cannot read them."
    -Mark Twain

    "I still find each day too short for all the thoughts I want to think, all the walks I want to take, all the books I want to read, and all the friends I want to see."
    -John Burrough
