A Great Start

It is a great thing to start life
with a small number of really good books
which are your very own.
Sir Arthur Conan Doyle (1859-1930)

Painting: Books in Winter by Jessie Wilcox Smith

I cannot live without books.
Thomas Jefferson


I find television very educational.
Every time someone turns it on,
I go in the other room and read a book.
Groucho Marx


A well-composed book is a magic carpet
on which we are wafted to a world that
we cannot enter in any other way.
Caroline Gordon

There is more treasure in books
than in all the pirates' loot on Treasure Island
and at the bottom of the Spanish Main...
and best of all, you can enjoy these riches
every day of your life.

Walt Disney (1901-1966)
