A library is a place that is a repository of information and gives every citizen equal access to it. That includes health information. And mental health information. It's a community space. It's a place of safety, a haven from the world.

Neil Gaiman

My mother was the greatest mother in the world. She thought I was the greatest thing on two feet. I'd come home with a little composition I had written at school, and she'd look at it and say, 'It's wonderful! You're another Shakespeare!' I always assumed I could do anything. It really is amazing how much that has to do with your attitude.

Stan Lee

In the realm of ideas everything depends on enthusiasm. In the real world all rests on perseverance.

Johann Wolfgang von Goethe

The human world is a long way from meeting the needs of the present, and it is borrowing massively from the future — not only by piling up money debt, but also by degrading the resources from which all real wealth ultimately comes.

Donella Meadows

The right of property holds good in all society; but in the West, ethics invade the personal life in a manner unknown to the East, so much so that the Oriental stands agape at our folly, knowing well that every man brings different instincts and ideas into the world with him.
