&ldquo;The best books, they don&#039;t talk about things you never thought about before. They talk about things you&#039;d always thought about, but that you didn&#039;t think anyone else had thought about. You read them, and suddenly you&#039;re a little bit less alone in the world. You&#039;re part of this cosmic community of people who&#039;ve thought about this thing, whatever it happens to be.&rdquo; <br /> ― Tommy Wallach, We All Looked Up
