About This Quote

I wanted a library like this...[] A cave of words that I'd made myself. This quote is so sad. When you think of one you love, you want to share your books with them, but when you get old and need help, they aren't there to lend a book to you because they are too busy living their lives and don't want to be bogged down by your troubles.
