Library Opened

Famous quotes containing the words library and/or opened:

“Our civilization has decided ... that determining the guilt or innocence of men is a thing too important to be trusted to trained men.... When it wants a library catalogued, or the solar system discovered, or any trifle of that kind, it uses up its specialists. But when it wishes anything done which is really serious, it collects twelve of the ordinary men standing round. The same thing was done, if I remember right, by the Founder of Christianity.”
—Gilbert Keith Chesterton (1874–1936)

“And when he had opened the seventh seal, there was silence in heaven about the space of half an hour.”
—Bible: New Testament, Revelation 8:1.
