“We don’t need a list of rights and wrongs, tables of dos
and don’ts: we need books, time, and silence. Thou shalt not is soon
forgotten, but Once upon a time lasts forever.” — Philip Pullman
“I am simply a ‘book drunkard.’ Books have the same
irresistible temptation for me that liquor has for its devotee. I cannot
withstand them.” — L.M. Montgomery
I love this post! I am a 'book drunkard' too :)
ReplyDeleteAnd I really like the "Beckon Book Bliss" process too..perfectly apt graphic!
ReplyDeleteI thought a weekend is a perfect time to disconnect from the world and devour books:), As it is the world gets all our time on weekdays! And, isn't it nice how a hangover from getting drunk with books never makes the head ache, rather makes the heart smile.
ReplyDeleteAbsolutely! Totally agree :) A wonderful book leaves a heady feeling afterwards, just like a full-bodied vintage wine does. That's why we are connoisseurs and collectors of books, with the same passion that connoisseurs of wine have.
