About This Quote
The love of learning, the sequestered nooks,And all the sweet serenity of books. The beauty of books is that they are an escape from reality. The beauty of learning is that it allows us to learn so much about the world. A person who loves books is not afraid to learn.
As a result, he or she learns even more about the world around them. Additionally, the person who loves books has a hidden place in their heart that no one else will ever know about. Even if they are willing to share that place with someone else, it will only be with their most trusted friend.
