― The Clocks

“Books took me to places I could never go otherwise. They shared the confessions of people I'd never met and lives I'd never witnessed. The emotions I could never feel, and the events I hadn't experienced could all be found in those volumes.”
― Almond

“Jake went in, aware that he had, for the first time in three weeks, opened a door without hoping madly to find another world on the other side. A bell jingled overhead. The mild, spicy smell of old books hit him, and the smell was somehow like coming home.”
― The Waste Lands

“I despair of ever getting it through anybody's head I am not interested in bookshops, I am interested in what's written in the books. I don't browse in bookshops, I browse in libraries, where you can take a book home and read it, and if you like it you go to a bookshop and buy it.”
― The Duchess of Bloomsbury Street
― The Duchess of Bloomsbury Street
“I just love the smell of an old book store and the feel of the crisp pages along my fingertips.”
― Foolish Games

― Essays of Elia and Last Essays of Elia
“In a second-hand bookshop head to the back, find the old books with dust undisturbed and worn off covers for these clothe true treasures.”

“Nothing belongs to itself anymore.
These trees are yours because you once looked at them.
These streets are yours because you once traversed them.
These coffee shops and bookshops, these cafés and bars, their sole owner is you.
They gave themselves so willingly, surrendering to your perfume.
You sang with the birds and they stopped to listen to you.
You smiled at the sheepish stars and they fell into your hair.
The sun and moon, the sea and mountain, they have all left from heartbreak.
Nothing belongs to itself anymore.
You once spoke to Him, and then God became yours.
He sits with us in darkness now
to plot how to make you ours.” K.K.”

“a bookstore is a place densely populated with tens of thousands of authors, dead or living, residing side by side. But books are quiet. They remain dead silent until somebody flips open a page. Only then so they spill out their stories, calmly and thoroughly, just enough at a time for me to handle.”
― Almond

“To walk into a modern-day bookstore is a little bit like studying a single photograph out of the infinite number of photographs that cold be taken of the world: It offers the reader a frame.”

“It’s always the end of the world,” said Russell Grandinetti, one of Amazon’s top executives. “You could set your watch on it arriving.” He pointed out, though, that the landscape was in some ways changing for the first time since Gutenberg invented the modern book nearly 600 years ago. “The only really necessary people in the publishing process now are the writer and reader,” he said. “Everyone who stands between those two has both risk and opportunity.” Amazon Signs Up Authors, Writing Publishers Out of Deal.

“They ended up at the Old Corner Bookstore, which Brian had read about in a tour guide to Boston. "Longfellow and Hawthorne and Oliver Wendell Holmes used to read here. Let's go in." Brian nudged the girls until they obeyed.
It was a regular bookstore, less history-minded than Brian had expected. In fact, the local history shelves were quite mangeable. I'll buy one book, he thought. This will get me launched in actual reading. Out of the zillions of choices, I'll find one here.
Brian picked out Paul Revere and the World He Lived In. It was thick and somehow exciting, with its chapter headings and scholarly notes and bibliography.”

“As soon as I saw you, I knew a grand adventure was about to happen.
I looked up at the gray stone facade of Ross & Co. and shifted the straps of my overloaded camping backpack, a smile forming on my lips as I remembered Winnie-the-Pooh's immortal words.”

“Tickled Ink was her local indie bookstore in Brooklyn and was perhaps Rosemary's favorite place on earth, aside from her writing beanbag chair. Thanks to Max, both the horror and romance sections--- the two most important sections of a bookstore, if you asked Rosemary--- were exceptionally well curated.”

“Save your soul, acquire print books (Sonnet 2434)
I once wrote, save trees, buy ebooks;
since then a couple of things have come to light.
You can lose access to the ebooks you purchase,
anytime the platform decides to remove them.
However, the most heinous case of all is that,
it's only a matter of time that platforms
quietly start altering existing literature,
like they are already doing to streaming.
Nature will endure the loss of a few trees
in the sacred cause of mind expansion,
but no amount of energy conservation
can make up for doctored consciousness.
The minor dent on nature for literature
is nothing compared to the species level
damage that looms, once existing literature
starts getting doctored by crooks.
Ebooks, audiobooks, the choice is yours, but
always acquire print copies of your cherished books.”
― Sonnets From The Mountaintop
