Padma Venkatraman
“The library was my only blessing. Every time I climbed the stairs, my heart lifted. All day, I looked forward to the happy hours I spent in that beautiful room. My guilt over appa's fate was too heavy to carry up there, and I learned to leave it below, somewhere on the ground floor. I left the house far behind as I walked on the path paved by the books, and every evening, baby Mangalam slept soundly on the bed I made for her on the window seat.”
Padma Venkatraman, Climbing the Stairs

Haruki Murakami
“—Cada uno de nosotros sigue perdiendo algo muy preciado —dice cuando el teléfono deja de sonarâ€�. Oportunidades importantes, posibilidades, sentimientos que no podrán recuperarse jamás. Esto es parte de lo que significa estar vivo. Pero dentro de nuestra cabeza, porque creo que es ahí donde debe de estar, hay un pequeño cuarto donde vamos dejando todo esto en forma de recuerdos. Seguro que es algo parecido a las estanterías de esta biblioteca. Y nosotros, para localizar dónde se esconde algo de nuestro corazón, tenemos que ir haciendo siempre fichas catalográficas. Hay que limpiar, ventilar la habitación, cambiar el agua de los jarrones de flores. Dicho de otro modo, tú deberás vivir hasta el fin de tus días en tu propia biblioteca.”
Haruki Murakami, Kafka on the Shore

It is here that I become privy to the sacred songs of kings and the ballads of rogues.

Walking down this hallway, I am a knight entering the forest in search of the truth...”
Jack Cavanaugh, A Hideous Beauty
