Quote by Γεωργία Λαμπάρα

“Να διαβάζεις, να μοσχοβολά η καρδιά σου λέξεις. Να διαβάζεις, να πλημμυρίζουν τα μάτια σου εικόνες να κολυμπούν τα δάκρυα. Να διαβάζεις, να γεννιούνται κόσμοι στο μυαλό σου. Να διαβάζεις, να εξαϋλώνεται μια στιγμή το σώμα σου να ελευθερώνεται η ψυχή σου.”

“It was the most pleasant few hours she'd had since they'd fled Alyssium. She hadn't realized how badly she'd missed this: sinking into the solace of words, letting the authors steer her toward answers or, at least, better questions. The books in her stack were written by scholars and sorcerers and, in the case of one heavily illustrated volume, a naturalist, and they each had a different perspective of how magic could be used to influence the natural world.”

“The habit of reading books is not yet on the brink of extinction. Not yet. This is in no small part due to an elite corps of frontline workers, people who are holding that line, and sometimes even turning the tide.
