“Books are the carriers of civilisation. Without books, history is silent, literature is dumb, science is crippled, thought & speculation at a standstill.
They are engines of change, windows on the world, lighthouses erected in the sea of time.”

"I often hear people saying what they’d like to have in life, well here are a few of the things I’d like.
I’d like those who are feeling ill to feel better.
I’d like every child to have someone who loves & cares for them.
I’d like those people who struggle every day to have a change of fortune & I’d like to see more people showing care & compassion towards others less fortunate.
I would like to see this message spread across the whole world for others to read."
Dave Hedges
"Never trust a man who can be in the same room as a tea cosy without trying it on"
