Lord! When you sell a man a book you don’t sell him just twelve ounces of paper and ink and glue—you sell him a whole new life. Love and friendship and humour and ships at sea by night—there’s all heaven and earth in a book, in a real book I mean.

Christopher Morley, Parnassus on Wheels. Epigraph from The Storytelling Animal by Jonathan Gottschall (via epigraphic)
