“A true home is one of the most sacred of places. It is a sanctuary into which men flee from the world's perils and alarms. It is a resting-place to which at close of day the weary retire to gather new strength for the battle and toils of tomorrow.

Libraries are like mountains or meadows or creeks: sacred space. So this afternoon, I'll walk to the library.”

“I see that I hold a sanctuary in their hearts, and in the hearts of their descendants, generations hence. I see her, an old woman, weeping for me on the anniversary of this day.

In this sacred sanctuary we will find peace; we will be renewed and fortified.”
