Wonderful quote about books


Our Federal Labor MP for the seat of Kingston, Amanda Rishworth, does regular street corner meetings to hear from the local community about issues of concern and to talk about what the Labor government are doing to address these issues. A couple of weeks ago, she gave out a pack that contained a bookmark encouraging people to support local libraries. This quote by Charles W. Eliot in 1896 was written on it – “Books are the quietest and most constant of friends; they are the most accessible and wisest of counsellors, and the most patient of teachers”. How true. Thanks for sharing this quote, Amanda! Let’s all get into reading books!!
