"A novel must be exceptionally good to live as long as the average cat." Hugh Maclennan
Sometimes we just need a humourous quote like this one.
"I don't want to be a tree; I want to be its meaning." Orhan Pamuk, "My Name Is Red"
One of the quotes in my favourite book by one of my favourite authors. He always has a great way of expressing my thoughts.
"It takes a library to raise a child." N.N.
I couldn't agree more with this even if I would. I've seen many people who had almost no books in the house, didn't go to the library with the kids and then complained that their children wouldn't read.
[If anyone can tell me the originator of this quote, I'd be very thankful and would happily include the name.]

As always, great quotes.
ReplyDeleteThanks. My favourite this week is the last one.
DeleteI love the first one! Thanks for sharing
ReplyDeleteYou're welcome. I love those quotes, so I am happy to share them with others who also do. I had to laugh out loud, when I heard the first one.
DeleteThanks for visiting.
Great quotes! The first one is funny, but I also love the last one!
ReplyDeleteSame here. And I totally agree. It's so great to have libraries everywhere to get your children to love reading. Why there are people out there who don't use them, is beyond me.
