...the Bible and Shakespeare.
England made Shakespeare, but the Bible made England.
-Victor Hugo-
"Books have to be heavy because the whole world is inside them."
-Cornelia Funke-
Books are wonderful!
Full of knowledge
mystery
thrill
humor
sorrow
surprises
love
joy
even hate.
Books can make you laugh until you ache & cry until you have to tell yourself that it's only a story.
Sometimes I think, "Why am I laughing more and crying more due to a story...than I am in my own life?"
But there's just something about a story!
"He is not the best student who reads the most books, but he who meditates the most upon them."
-Charles Spurgeon-
May your life be filled with laughter & books!
But guess what?
"A thorough knowledge of the Bible is worth more than a college education."
-Theodore Roosevelt-
