I often come across a sentence or a paragraph and just want to share it...sometimes I don't even know why. So, my weekly Sunday post will be these sentences or paragraphs I've come across in my reading and need to share! (Yes, I'm using you ;)
Today's quote is one Walt Whitman would be especially proud of, which is also the reason it caught my eye. Two men, a hundred and fifty plus years apart, resonating with the same idea.
from The World's Strongest Librarian, by Josh Hanagarne

ReplyDeleteGood idea!!!!
DeleteThis is such a lovely quotation.
ReplyDeleteLove this quote, loooooved that book :D
ReplyDeleteAwesome! And seriously, The World's Strongest Librarian was soooo good!
ReplyDeleteDon't think I'm going to be able to put these up without comment (maybe without context, but definitely not without comment). The Whitmanesque-ness of it was too cool and I like talking about why phrases hit me a certain way.
ReplyDeleteI LOVE this! Love to think about the layers of experience, the different viewpoints we bring to the things we read and what better way to collect all of that than the library! You're making me jones for a library hit!
ReplyDeleteThen the author is doing a good job - his book is a memoir about his life, including the fact that he's a librarian!
DeleteLove the quote, loved the book. Love, love, love!
