Quote of the Week
by Amy Tan

“When you read about the lives of other people, people of different circumstances or similar circumstances, you are part of their lives for that moment. You inhabit their lives and you feel what they’re feeling and that is compassion. If we see that reading does allow us that, we see how absolutely essential reading is.” ~ Amy Tan

Quote of the Week by Anne Lamott


Quote of the Week
by Anne Lamott

“What a miracle it is that out of these small, flat, rigid squares of paper unfolds world after world after world, worlds that sing to you, comfort and quiet or excite you. Books help us understand who we are and how we are to behave. They show us what community and friendship mean; they show us how to live and die.” ~ Anne Lamott in Bird by Bird: Some Instructions on Writing and Life
