About This Quote

A book is the most personal of all objects. It is truly a private refuge where we can escape from the world and lose ourselves in words. Even when we are in close company, we can often be found with a book in one hand and a cup of coffee in the other. We can spend hours lost in someone else’s imagination.

They give us the freedom to be who we want to be when we read them. A book is like a safe in which we can keep all our most treasured and most personal possessions and ideas in one place.
