A Truly Good Book...
"A truly good book is something as natural, and as unexpectedly and unaccountably fair and perfect, as a wild flower discovered on the prairies of the west, or in the jungles of the east."
- Thoreau, Henry David. Walking Part 2 paragraph 31

What is a Commonplace Book?
A commonplace book is a personal collection of quotations or passages from any source.
I have collected these thoughts for some time now and decided that a blog is the perfect place to organize them all together.
Some entries may include a commentary.
If this is your first visit here, please visit the sidebar to search quotations by theme or label.
