Motivational Quotes Monday: The Value of Libraries

Happy Monday, friends!! Well, as you can tell from the time of this post, I didn’t make it to the library today!! You know I love going there to get lots and lots of work done, but the easy breezy summer is working against me, I guess!! But still, I thought today’s motivational quotes could honor libraries for all the splendor that they are!! Remember how thrilling and exciting it was to go to the library when you were a child? It was one grand adventure, and thanks to Ms. Bear, my sister and I had adventures at least three times a week! Getting lost in the stacks and reading all the newest issues of your favorite magazines…ahhh, what wonderful days!! Here are five quotes to celebrate all the wonderful things libraries have to offer, in the summer and every day of the year…

    I love what Ray Bradbury said about libraries: “Without libraries what have we? We have no past and no future.” Thank you for writing this blog, Melissa! I first discovered your writing via the wonderful Good Housekeeping article about you and your dad. (And, like you, I miss my own dad so very much).

      Hi there! I’m so sorry to hear about your father! I’m not sure it ever gets any easier, but I’m so glad I can write about the memories I have of him…
