It is not customary to acknowledge the trees themselves, though their commitment is total." Forsyth and Rada, Machine Learning
"A book must be the axe for the frozen sea within us." Franz Kafka
"I must say I find television very educational. The minute somebody turns it on, I go into the library and read a good book." Groucho Marx
"Books don't change people; paragraphs do, sometimes even sentences." John Piper

DeleteI agree with Groucho too, tv is just background noise to me, I always have my nose in a book. Another great Groucho quote: Outside of a dog, a book is a man's best friend. Inside of a dog it's too dark to read.
