Wrapped up in Books

~ Book lovers of the world unite! ~
Like 'the wandering book people'
in Ray Bradbury's 'Fahrenheit 451' we will
memorise and live and breathe the lines
and words, word for word of our favourite books.
If there were no more books tomorrow,
we will learn and memorise them today! Becoming 'book people' preserving the love of knowledge and the written word for future generations. :reading::love::reading:

'Book of the Month' BRAVE NEW WORLD Quotes

Wintriness responded to wintriness.
The overalls of the worker's were white, their hands gloved with a pale corpse-coloured rubber.
The light was frozen, dead, a ghost.
Only from the yellow barrels of the microscopes did it borrow a certain rich and living substance, lying along the polished tubes like butter, streak after luscious streak in long recession down the work tables.

No social stability without individual stability.

Christianity without tears — that's what soma is.

But I don't want comfort. I want God, I want poetry, I want real danger, I want freedom, I want goodness. I want sin.
"O brave new world," he repeated. "O brave new world that has such people in it. Let's start at once."

True happiness must seem rather squalid compared to the overcompensations of misery.
"Eternity was in our lips and eyes."
