Text Quotes
Our libraries are valuable centers of education, learning and enrichment for people of all ages. In recent years, libraries have taken on an increasingly important role. today’s libraries are about much more than books.  (Libraries Quotes) Libraries have a PR problem - or at least that’s what they call it when no one under the age of 40 walks through the door. To bring in a younger crowd, the paper pushers have turned to tech to bring in the public. DVDs, CDs and, yes, even videogames are hitting the shelves of your local library.  (Libraries Quotes) Libraries are as the shrine where all the relics of the ancient saints, full of true virtue, and that without delusion or imposture, are preserved and reposed.  (Libraries Quotes) Henceforth I whimper no more, postpone no more, need nothing, Done with indoor complaints, libraries, querulous criticisms, Strong and content I travel the open road.  (Libraries Quotes) Arnold Schwarzenegger cut teacher’s salaries and parks and libraries rather than raise taxes for the many California millionaires and billionaires.  (Libraries Quotes) Thomas Young was born in 1731 in upstate New York. The child of impoverished Irish immigrants, he grew up in a log cabin without the benefit of a formal education. But he was an avid reader who began collecting books at a young age and eventually amassed one of the finest personal libraries in New England.  (Libraries Quotes) Before going back to college, I knew I didn’t want to be an intellectual, spending my life in books and libraries without knowing what the hell is going on in the streets. Theory without practice is just as incomplete as practice without theory. The two have to go together.  (Libraries Quotes) I don’t think that there has been a film that I’ve done that hasn’t been influenced by libraries and archives.  (Libraries Quotes) Every comedian is furious. Age makes me angry. I’m unhappy at not being able to open packages anymore. I’m angry that libraries have gone. I hate children on planes. I’m very shallow, so they tend to be little things. To be honest, I think I was probably angry the day I was born, you know, about diapers or something.  (Libraries Quotes) I find it incredible and outrageous that public and school libraries are being forced to close - we’ll all pay the price in the long term.  (Libraries Quotes) Libraries have had a long history of dealing with authoritarian organizations demanding reader records - who’s read what - and this has led to people being rounded up and killed.  (Libraries Quotes) A society - any society - is defined as a set of mutual benefits and duties embodied most visibly in public institutions: public schools, public libraries, public transportation, public hospitals, public parks, public museums, public recreation, public universities, and so on.  (Libraries Quotes) I hate libraries for the way they put stickers on things. I don’t approve of folding over pages, or of writing in books. And scissors - that’s beyond the pale.  (Libraries Quotes) In my ideal world, my next novel would have a first printing of, say, 2,500 hardcovers for reviewers, libraries, collectors, and autograph hounds. The publisher could print more copies if they get low. And simultaneously, or six weeks later, the book would be available in paperback.  (Libraries Quotes) There’s this long tradition of... even ‘Where The Wild Things Are,’ which many people consider the best kids’ picture book of all time. It was considered revolutionary, and some libraries wouldn’t carry it. But it’s a classic because it taps into empowerment for kids, kids facing dangers and winning.  (Libraries Quotes) More is got from one book on which the thought settles for a definite end in knowledge, than from libraries skimmed over by a wandering eye.  (Libraries Quotes) There are few efforts more conducive to humility than that of the translator trying to communicate an incommunicable beauty. Yet, unless we do try, something unique and never surpassed will cease to exist except in the libraries of a few inquisitive book lovers.  (Libraries Quotes) I’ve always liked libraries. They’re quiet and full of books and full of knowledge.  (Libraries Quotes) Children have to have access to books, and a lot of children can’t go to a store and buy a book. We need not only our public libraries to be funded properly and staffed properly, but our school libraries. Many children can’t get to a public library, and the only library they have is a school library.  (Libraries Quotes) I discovered reading through libraries. I grew up in a house that wasn’t brimming with books.  (Libraries Quotes) I have encountered those who feel that libraries have served their purpose and are no longer needed. There are those who consider them a soft target when it comes to local authority budget cuts. In certain political quarters, there is a refusal to see that our public library service needs active protection.  (Libraries Quotes) Libraries function as crucial technology hubs, not merely for free Web access, but those who need computer training and assistance. Library business centers help support entrepreneurship and retraining.  (Libraries Quotes) The justices have constitutionally protected obscenity in libraries, filth over cable television, and now unlimited internet pornography.  (Libraries Quotes) Why may we not be in the universe, as our dogs and cats are in our drawingrooms and libraries?  (Libraries Quotes) A drop in younger children visiting libraries is of great concern. As children’s laureate, I am passionate about the role of libraries, both in schools and in the wider community. They are unique places where children can begin their journey as readers, as well as being creative hubs.  (Libraries Quotes) Prior to the Civil War, most libraries were either privately owned or housed in universities or churches.  (Libraries Quotes) ...bookstores, libraries... they’re the closest thing I have to a church.  (Libraries Quotes) I write in coffee shops, libraries, parks, museums. I get antsy and then get on my bike and go someplace else, letting the ideas spin around in my head as I dodge taxis.  (Libraries Quotes) Go to Cleveland Clinic, Mayo Clinic, or any college and you’ll see libraries, dormitories, and a lot of buildings that were a result of the generosity of fat cats.  (Libraries Quotes) A country that has few museums is both materially poor and spiritually poor...Museums, like theaters and libraries, are a means to freedom.  (Libraries Quotes)
