Quote of the Day (Greer)

“Libraries are reservoirs of strength, grace and wit, reminders of order, calm and continuity, lakes of mental energy, neither warm nor cold, light nor dark. The pleasure they give is steady, unorgastic, reliable, deep and long-lasting. In any library in the world, I am at home, unselfconscious, still and absorbed.”—Germaine Greer, “Still in Melbourne, January, 1987,” Daddy, We Hardly Knew You (1989)
(Funny—that’s just what I’ve been saying all these years!)
