But Most From Love
November 26, 2011
“Books are food,” wrote the English critic Holbrook Jackson, “libraries are so many dishes of meat, served out for several palates. …We eat them from love or necessity, as other foods, but most from love.”
-Anne Fadiman, Ex Libris

Of course I don’t mind! :)

A gorgeous thought!
Aaaargh! I want those muffins so bad that I can’t even focus on the quote!
Love the quote.

A scrumptious message indeed! Lovely post. I invite you join a Jane Austen books celebration in January 2012 as I see that she happens to be one of your favourites. Please visit my blog here http://t.co/8Q5m2PF for more information if you wish to participate.
