Love for Books!

14 juni 2012

But I loved the library simply because it was a library.
I love libraries. I like reading, but I love libraries.
Being surrounded by books makes me feel safe,
the way some people need trees or mountains around
them to feel secure.
Not me – nature’s not what I cling to.
I cling to books.

Maria zei: I love books too, the way they look, the way they feel, the smell and i love libraries too. I want a whole wall of filled bookcases in my house....almost there hihi, or a room full with a desk in te middle and a comfy chair to read and dream. This one on the picture is looking stunning.

Copyright on these images varies.
It is best to assume that modern,
living artists have full
copyright on their work.
I am using them under
'fair use' with,
at least I try to,
full acknowledgement
and links to appropriate sites.
I would advise others to always
check if possible as artists
(understandably) vary
as to their tolerance
of re-use of their works.
