I will admit that this blog is mainly for me. I love to read but have a terrible memory for the fine details of what I have read. I wish I could pull a quote out of my head when I need it. Instead, I will blog them. Maybe you will be inspired to pick up one of the books I include in my blog.

Tell Me No Lies by Elizabeth Lowell

"Art isn't a luxury or an investment. It's the soul of humanity made tangible." Loc 2266

"Where sons once lived with parents, now a wife and husband live alone. A single grandchild is shared among four family-hungry grandparents. A single child grows alone, never sharing, never learning the needs of others."....."The government tries to fill rooms emptied of the extended family. We care for the sick. We feed the poor. We punish the evil. We reward the earnest."...."It is not enough. When the child's parents die, so does the child's history. There is no fabric of interlocking generations. There is no continuity." Loc 6514
