Thank you all so much for responding to my question about your favorite quote! I received a lot of great quotes! If some are repeats I am sorry! Sincerely, Patricia Hamilton HIT: My favorite is by Frederick Douglass: "Once you learn to read, you will be forever free." ********************* Mark Twain's: The man who doesn't read good books has no advantage over the man who can't read them. ******************** Books to the ceiling, Books to the sky. My pile of books are a mile high. How I love them! How I need them! I'll have along beard by the time I read them. Arnold Lobel ******************** I like using quotes from books i.e. "I just want to get to the library." Hermione, Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire p.198 "Books have to be heavy, because the whole world is in them." Inkheart by Cornelia Funke ************* "I cannot live without books." Thomas Jefferson ******************** This is my own. I have it written in three big posters across the back wall of my elementary library. The first poster reads: "Magic means to change" The second poster reads: "Reading changes lives" The third poster reads: "Reading is Magic!" ********************** "You don't have to burn books to destroy a culture. Just get people to stop reading them."-- Ray Bradbury *********************** "Books can be dangerous. The best ones should be labeled - "This could change your Life" (Helen Exley) *********************** Literature gives us a memory of lives we did not lead. Mason Cooley ********************** The more you read, the more you know. The more you know, the smarter you grow. The smarter you grow, the stronger your voice, when speaking your mind or making your choice. ************************ Jefferson: I cannot live without books. There are a couple of books published with quotes from famous people (and not so famous) on books and reading. ************************ Walt Disney: There is more treasure in books than in all the pirates' loot on Treasure Island and at the bottom of the Spanish Main... and best of all, you can enjoy these riches every day of your life. *************** Harper Lee: "Until I feared I would lose it, I never loved to read. One does not love breathing. ************************** Patricia Hamilton Ritchie Elementary New Baltimore, VA phamilton@fcps1.org -------------------------------------------------------------------- All LM_NET postings are protected by copyright law.
