Famous quotes containing the words world and/or library:
“A dense undergrowth of extension cords sustains my upper world of lights, music, and machines of comfort.”
—Mason Cooley (b. 1927)
“That a famous library has been cursed by a woman is a matter of complete indifference to a famous library.

Never will I wake these echoes, never will I ask for that hospitality again ...”
—Virginia Woolf (1882–1941)
