"All of us can think of a book... that we hope none of our children have taken off the shelf.

And then we have no books left on the shelf for any of us." »Katherine Paterson
"I hold a creed, which no one ever taught me, and which I seldon mention, but in which I delight, and to which I cling, for it extends hope to all; it makes eternity a rest - a mighty home - not a terror and an abyss. With this creed, I can so clearly distinguish between the criminal and his crime, I can so sincerly forgive the first while I abhor the last; with this creed, revenge never worries my heart, degredation never too deeply disgusts me, injustice bever crushes me too low; I live in calm, looking to the end." »Charlotte Bronte, Jane Eyre, page 62
