Thanks @Eggs for the #WondrousWednesday tag! 🤗

I‘ve always loved this 📚quote:

“She read books as one would breathe air, to fill up and live. She read books as one would breathe ether, to sink in and die.” -Annie Dillard, The Living

“People seemed so joyous tonight, yet it was the same world it ever was, and they all had forgotten. When a baby is born it‘s fuse lights. The ticking begins, and the fire starts fizzing down its length.”
