Quotes from The Lost Years of Merlin series (T.A. Barron):
"And I came to understand, in a way I never had before, that books are truly the stuff of miracles. I even dared to dream that someday, somehow, I might surround myself with books from many times and many tongues.."

Wow! There are so much quotes here that I can always come back when whenever I want to be enlightened. I love this quote, “A reader lives a thousand lives before he dies . . . The man who never reads lives only one.” – George R.R. Martin.
