All you need in life is truth and beauty and you can find both at the Public Library.
Studs Terkel, broadcaster & historian
Perhaps no place in any community is so totally democratic as the town library. The only entrance requirement is interest.
Lady Bird Johnson, First Lady of the United States
Without libraries what have we? We have no past and no future.
Ray Bradbury, author
When you are growing up, there are two institutional places that affect you most powerfully—the church, which belongs to God, and the public library, which belongs to you. The public library is a great equalizer.
Keith Richards, musician
A library outranks any other one thing a community can do to benefit its people. It is a never failing spring in the desert.
