"Secondhand
books are wild books, homeless books; they have come together in vast
flocks of variegated feather, and have a charm which the domesticated
volumes of the library lack...in this random miscellaneous company we
may rub against some complete stranger who will, with luck, turn into
the best friend we have in the world." |
