“书籍是年轻人的向导,老年人的消遣。
它帮助我们排解孤寂,摆脱精神负担。”
——杰里米·柯里尔
“世间唯一真正平等待人的是书籍,唯一开放的来者不拒的宝库是图书馆。”
——兰格弗博士
也许世间再也没有什么比书籍的力量更强大的了:它使穷人摆脱贫困,使悲惨者脱离苦海,使负荷者无视沉重,使病人忘却痛苦,使伤心的人抛开忧愁,使受压迫者忘掉屈辱。
书籍是孤独者的朋友,被遗弃者的伴侣,无趣者的欢乐,绝望者的希冀,沮丧者的兴奋剂,无助者的帮手。
它们给黑暗带来光明,给阴影带来绚烂。
我们可能卑微,被社会遗忘,没有机会与那些大人物和上流人士交往。
但是,在书中——这个世界上最美好的社会——我们可以住在宫殿,同王子交谈,熟悉所有王室成员,始终与最伟大、最高尚的人往来。
