"Words are, in my not-so-humble opinion, our most inexhaustible source of magic."
— J.K. Rowling
"For books are not absolutely dead things, but do contain a potency of life in them to be as active as that soul was whose progeny they are.... Who kills a man kills a reasonable creature God's image; but he who destroys a good book, kills reason itself, kills the image of God, as it were in the eye."
— John Milton
