Books 📖
For books are not absolutely dead things, but do contain a potency of life in them to be as active as that soul was whose progeny they are; nay, they do preserve as in a vial the purest efficacy and extraction of that living intellect that bred them.
– John Milton, Areopagitica
Where they have burned books, they will end in burning human beings.
– Heinrich Heine
