About This Quote
The first thing we think of when we think of books is that they are the most tolerant of friends. When we first walk into a bookstore and see all those books and how friendly they look, we know that books will be there for us to read at any time of day or night. If you need a friend, you can always find one nearby. They’re right next to those completely unreadable novels and those historical nonfiction books.
