Quote

Every new search is a voyage to the Indies, a quest for buried treasure, a journey to the end of the rainbow and whether or not at the end there shall be turned up a pot of gold or merely a delightful volume, there are always wonders along the way.

When we are collecting books, we are collecting happiness.

The day before yesterday has always been a day of glamor, of gilt and glory. The present is sordid and prosaic. Time colors history as it does a meerschaum pipe.

A yellow fog swirls past the window-pane As night descends upon the fabled street: A lonely hansom splashes through the rain, And ghostly gas lamps fail at twenty feet. Here though the world explode, these two survive, And it is always eighteen ninety-five.

Only those things the heart believes are true.
