“I am reading six books at once, the only way of reading; since, as you will agree, one book is only a single unaccompanied note, and to get the full sound, one needs ten others at the same time.” ― Virginia Woolf, The Letters of Virginia Woolf: Volume Three, 1923-1928

Icelandic Magical Stave called Draumstafir - “To dream what your heart desires”. Icelandic magical staves (sigils) are symbols credited with magical effect preserved in various grimoires dating from the 17th century and later. According to the Museum of Icelandic Sorcery and Witchcraft, the effects credited to most of the staves were very relevant to the average Icelanders of the time, who were mostly subsistence farmers and had to deal with harsh climatic conditions.

“He who writes in blood and aphorisms does not want to be read, he wants to be learned by heart.”
— Friedrich Nietzsche (1844-1900), from “Thus Spoke Zarathustra. A Book For All And None” (1883), translated from the German by Adrian Del Caro (2006)

“Great hearts are like great suns, they contain their own light and warmth. You, therefore, have no need of praise; you do not even need thanks; but I must tell you that I love you more every day, not only because you are one of the marvels of the age, but also because you are one of its consolations. I thank you. But pray come here; you known you promised to do so. Come and receive the greetings of all those who surround me, and who will rally round you no less loyally than round me. Your brother.”
— Victor Hugo praises and cajoles his close friend and brother author, Alexandre Dumas [père], to pay the Hugo household a long awaited visit in a letter dated March 8, 1857.
