The Book of Life is a Book of Riddles,

The belief system is like a Book of Law that rules our mind.

but we cannot accept and love ourselves.

Not everyone is always going to like what you do.
Your job application, your book proposal,

behind you in the supermarket checkout line
is occasionally going to think that you are doing it all wrong.
Don't take it personally.
- Jonathan Lockwood Huie

The best of a book is not the thought which it contains,

just as the charm of music dwells not in the tones
but in the echoes of our hearts.
- Oliver Wendell Holmes

Don't join the book burners.
Do not think you are going to conceal thoughts
by concealing evidence that they ever existed.
- Dwight D. Eisenhower

When you are old and grey and full of sleep,
And nodding by the fire, take down this book,
And slowly read, and dream of the soft look
Your eyes had once, and of their shadows deep;
How many loved your moments of glad grace,
And loved your beauty with love false or true,
But one man loved the pilgrim Soul in you,
And loved the sorrows of your changing face;
And bending down beside the glowing bars,
Murmur, a little sadly, how Love fled
And paced upon the mountains overhead
And hid his face amid a crowd of stars.
- William Butler Yeats

If I read a book that impresses me,
I have to take myself firmly in hand
before I mix with other people;

My diary is a mirror telling the story of a dreamer who,
a long long time ago went through life the way one reads a book.

The things I want to know are in books;
my best friend is the man who'll get me a book I ain't read.

Every book is a quotation;
and every house is a quotation out of all forests,
and mines, and stone quarries;
and every man is a quotation from all his ancestors.

The final lesson a writer learns is that
everything can nourish the writer.

Books constitute capital.
A library book lasts as long as a house, for hundreds of years.
It is not, then, an article of mere consumption
but fairly of capital, and often in the case of professional men,
setting out in life, it is their only capital.

Faith:
When you walk to the edge of all the light you have
and take that first step into the darkness of the unknown,

- Patrick Overton - from his book of poems: The Leaning Tree, 1975
[Widely mis-attributed to Barbara J. Winter, Elisabeth Kubler-Ross, and others]

Literature is my Utopia. Here I am not disenfranchised.
No barrier of the senses shuts me out from
the sweet, gracious discourses of my book friends.
They talk to me without embarrassment or awkwardness.

Life is partly what we make it,
and partly what it is made by the friends we choose.

And never regret
