    “Libraries are reservoirs of strength, grace and wit, reminders of order, calm and continuity, lakes of mental energy, neither warm nor cold, light nor dark. The pleasure they give is steady, unorgastic, reliable, deep and long-lasting. In any library in the world, I am at home, unselfconscious, still and absorbed.”
    —Germaine Greer (b. 1939)

    “Over the winter glaciers,
    I see the summer glow,
    And, through the wild-piled snowdrift,
    The warm rosebuds below.”
    —Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)

    “There is no society known where a more or less developed criminality is not found under different forms. No people exists whose morality is not daily infringed upon. We must therefore call crime necessary and declare that it cannot be non-existent, that the fundamental conditions of social organization, as they are understood, logically imply it.”
    —Emile Durkheim (1858–1917)
