Books are what you step on to take you to a higher shelf. The higher your stack of books, the higher the shelf you can reach. Want to reach higher? Stack some more books under your feet!

Everything you need for a better future and success has already been written. Jim Rohn

Kim Stanley Robinson

It is rather hard work: there is now no smooth road into the future: but we go round, or scramble over the obstacles. We’ve got to live, no matter how many skies have fallen. David Herbert Lawrence
