Leon Wieseltier Quotes

But Even Now, With The Crates Piled High In The Hall, What I See Most Plainly About The Books Is That They Are Beautiful. They Take Up Room? Of Course They Do: They Are An Environment; Atoms, Not Bits. My Books Are Not Dead Weight, They Are Live Weight - Matter Infused By Spirit, Every One Of Them, Even The Silliest. They Do Not Block The Horizon; They Draw It. They Free Me From The Prison Of Contemporaneity: One Should Not Live Only In One's Own Time. A Wall Of Books Is A Wall Of Windows.
