Jorge Luis Borges
“I cannot sleep unless I am surrounded by books.”
Jorge Luis Borges

Shelby Foote
“A university is just a group of buildings gathered around a library.”
Shelby Foote

Octavia E. Butler
“Choose your leaders
with wisdom and forethought.
To be led by a coward
is to be controlled
by all that the coward fears.
To be led by a fool
is to be led
by the opportunists
who control the fool.
To be led by a thief
is to offer up
your most precious treasures
to be stolen.
To be led by a liar
is to ask
to be told lies.
To be led by a tyrant
is to sell yourself
and those you love
into slavery.”
Octavia E. Butler, Parable of the Talents
