BOOKS ARE BOOKS
The following quote attributed to S. Laman Blanchard
appears in George Kolbe's 84's Sale catalog (p60):
"Books are books, but they are also men speaking to
present and future - human extensions beyond locality and
grave. They are records, documents, sources, heritage,
literature, creative ideas given life and clothed with form.
They are the recorded sum of human wisdom and folly,
learning and ignorance, beauty and ugliness, nobility and
sordidness, faith and despair."
