"A book, being a physical object, engenders a certain respect that zipping electrons cannot. Because you cannot turn a book off, because you have to hold it in your hands, because a book sits there, waiting for you, whether you think you want it or not, because of all these things, a book is a friend. Itâ€™s not just the content, but the physical being of a book that is there for you always and unconditionally."

-- Mo Willems
