“It’s not how many books you get through, it’s how many books get through you.” - Mortimer Adler
"Everything we read stimulates our mind to think, and what we think determines what we desire, and desires are the seedbed of our actions.

John Hardon, S.J., The Catholic Lifetime Reading Plan
"Every soul that uplifts itself uplifts the world." - Elisabeth Leseur
