[Publib] Book quotes

[Kara Wiseman]

My favorite from an unconventional source:
 
"Smell is the most powerful trigger to the memory there is. A certain flower or a whiff of smoke can bring up experiences long forgotten. Books smell musty and--and rich. The knowledge gained from a computer is--is it has no texture, no context. It's there and then it's gone. If it's to last, then the getting of knowledge should be tangible. It should be, uh... smelly." 
 
Rupert Giles (Librarian) - Buffy the Vampire Slayer, Season 1, I Robot... You Jane.
