WORDS OF WISDOM
​"Finally, we must consider what pleasantness of teaching there is in books, how easy, how secret! How safely we lay bare the poverty of human ignorance to books without feeling any shame! They are the masters who instruct us without rod or rule, without angry words, without clothes or money. If you come to them they are not asleep; if you ask and inquire of them, they do not withdraw themselves; they do not chide if you make mistakes; they do not laugh at you if you are ignorant. O books who alone are liberal and free, who  give to all who ask of you and enfranchise all who serve you faithfully!"
Richard de Bury: Philobiblion 
​(14th century)
