“I’ve always loved libraries. I love their silence, their desks and chairs. I love the smell of the books, new and old together, confirming that there is a lineage of human questioning, dreaming, and promise that is available to anyone who enters the library’s realm…No matter where a library may be found, even in an alley, a human being can enter and within minutes travel anywhere, find out anything, begin or learn to dream.”
