"Don't be afraid of falling. It doesn't matter how many times you fall down. All that matters is how many times you keep getting up."---Marian Wright Edelman
"I have often reflected upon the new vistas that reading opened to me. I knew right there in prison that reading had changed forever the course of my life. As I see it today, the ability to read awoke in me some long dormant craving to be mentally alive."---Malcolm X
