“Books are strange things. Although untongued and dumb, Yet with their eloquence they sway the world ; And, powerless and impassive as the seem, Move o’er the impressive minds and hearts of men Like fire across a prairie. Mind sparks, They star the else dark firmament ; they spur The thoughtless to reflection, raise the prone With the strong leverage of intelligence ; Furnish the empty-minded, chart the soul Through her stern, perilous voyage ; pedestal The great and gifted, beckoning meaner men To gaze upon their mightier works and ways. O that all books were such !”. Unknown.
