reading

I ran across this entry, with this quote, today as I was read­ing through the Ninth Wave Designs blog.

“The buy­ing of more books than one can read is noth­ing less than the soul reach­ing towards infin­ity, and this pas­sion is the only thing that raises us above the beast that per­ish.” — Alfred Edward Newton

Obvi­ously there is another bib­lio­phile out there who could be our twin. I also think Sarah, at least, would agree with their cat on the sub­ject of read­ing and books. As for Dono­van, well, maybe he’s inclined to agree with Pearl the dog, but I’m not sure he could put it quite so eru­ditely. I’m also glean­ing some good ideas from read­ing through the site — let’s see what hap­pens with them.
