“As for me, I believe that if there's a God - and I am as neutral on the subject as is possible - then the most basic proof of His existence is black humor.

“People think librarians are unromantic, unimaginative. This is not true. We are people whose dreams run in particular ways. Ask a mountain climber what he feels when he sees a mountain; a lion tamer what goes through his mind when he meets a new lion; a doctor confronted with a beautiful malfunctioning body. The idea of a library full of books, the books full of knowledge, fills me with fear and love and courage and endless wonder.” PeopleThinkingWayFeelsMindBookIdeasDreamBodyRunningBeautifulAsksWonderParticularMountainDoctorsAnd LoveLibraryEndlessLionsLibrarianClimbersLove And FearLove And CourageMountain Climbers Author:Elizabeth McCracken
