Hi,
I've always been a book lover, my favorites being books about ancient history!
There are tons of wonderful quotes about books and reading that I enjoy very much! I'd like to share one great book passage today!
"Books never pall on us...They discourse with us, they take counsel with us, and are united to us by a certain living familiarity. It is easy to gain access to these friends, for they are always at my service, and I admit them to my company, or dismiss them from it, whenever I please. They are never troublesome, but immediately answer every question that I ask."
by Petrarch

Hello fellow book lovers,
One of my very all-time favorite authors is Isaac Disraeli (1767-1848). I have a very nice collection of antique volumes of his work! (my personal collection, not for sale)
"Those authors who appear sometimes to forget they are writers, and remember they are men, will be our favourites. He who writes from the heart, will write to the heart; every one is enabled to decide on his merits, and they will not be referred to learned heads, or a distant day."
Have a great evening!!
