“And now here is my secret, a very simple secret: It is only with the heart that one can see rightly; what is essential is invisible to the eye.”
― Antoine de Saint-Exupéry, The Little Prince
“When we see the Earth from space, we see ourselves as a whole. We see the unity, and not the divisions. It is such a simple image with a compelling message; one planet, one human race.”
― Stephen Hawking, Brief Answers to the Big Questions
“- Te ascult, zic. Deci, prostia Românului e...
- Spre deosebire de a Rusului – care e... precum le e ţara: nesfârşită; spre deosebire de a Neamţului, în colţuri, cubică, bine gospodărită, poţi să crezi că-i o maşinărie de-a lor... Prostia noastră românească e… proastă, gălăgioasă, măruntă, Românul vrea să arate ca un cocoş plin de pene, de ţănţoşenie şi când acolo e un vrăbioi jumulit şi de-râs... Atunci mi-am zis că prostia-naţională e un fel de calitate, popor mare e acela în stare de tâmpenii mari, monumentale, de prostii istorice – şi cum, în capul meu, istoria e sora geamănă a geografiei, îmi spun că o mare prostie are nevoie de mari spaţii, de... spaţiu-vital, de sute de mii de kilometri pătraţi, ca să se exprime – or Românul rămâne, şi în prostie, mărunt, meschin, tâmpit pe centimetru pătrat, prost în bătătură, idiot în ogradă… (Ediţia II, Editura Albastros, Bucureşti, 1990).”
― Paul Goma, Din calidor
“Asta n-o vor înțelege ei niciodată: că nu ești dator să ajungi ceva, că nu trebuie să parvii nicăieri, că ceea ce importă în primul rând este să fii tu și să poți rămâne tu însuți în orice împrejurare a vieții.”
― Mircea Eliade, Întoarcerea din rai
“Aş suferi mai mult dacă aş fi respins. Iar eu vreau să înving întotdeauna. De aceea mă arăt retras, dispreţuitor. Nădăjduiesc într-un timp când munca mă va înălţa destul ca să atrag privirile. Suferinţele mele - până atunci - nu le va cunoaşte nimeni.”
― Mircea Eliade, Le Roman de l'adolescent myope

Goodreads Librarians are volunteers who help ensure the accuracy of information about books and authors in the Goodreads' catalog. The Goodreads Libra Goodreads Librarians are volunteers who help ensure the accuracy of information about books and authors in the Goodreads' catalog. The Goodreads Librarians Group is the official group for requesting additions or updates to the catalog, including: * Adding new books or editions * Editing book information (including covers) * Combining and merging book editions * Edits to page counts, quotes or awards * Correcting author profiles for authors not in the Goodreads Author Program If you're a Goodreads member with a new request, click Join Group. Once you're added to the group, you can post your question following this link. Simple requests (e.g. page count updates) typically take around 48 hours depending on the volume of requests, while more complex requests could take up to a couple of weeks (e.g. adding a new book). Authors, if you are a member of the Goodreads Author Program, you can edit information about your own books. Find out how in this guide. Keep in mind that Librarians don't: * Grant or give insights into Librarian applications / Librarian status * Move ISBNs or ASINs between editions * Help with non-catalog Support questions (e.g. How do I reset my password?) For help with these queries or to submit general questions, comments or feature requests, try Goodreads Help or use the Contact Us form. If you're a Librarian and want to process requests, please refer to our Librarian Manual to ensure edits are performed in line with Goodreads policies. ...more
Around the World in 80 Books — 28914 members — last activity 5 hours, 6 min ago
Reading takes you places. Where in the world will your next book take you? If you love world literature, translated works, travel writing, or explorin Reading takes you places. Where in the world will your next book take you? If you love world literature, translated works, travel writing, or exploring the world through books, you have come to the right place! ATW80 began in 2009 as a challenge on TNBBC. The separate group was established in 2011. Anyone can join and participate in the challenges or readings at any time. Challenge participation is not a requirement of joining. Anyone who loves reading books from around the world is welcome here. The main purpose of this group is to travel the world through books, experiencing new authors and cultures along the way. Want to read about the world? We have close to 50,000 books cataloged by setting and more are added each week. I personally started reading around the world in 2008. This venture has introduced me to far off lands, fresh viewpoints, and many new authors I might not have discovered otherwise. Here is a record of my travels since 2009: https://www.goodreads.com/topic/show/18478768-diane-s-world-travels-by-book I have worked very hard gathering resources for others to use and coming up with new activities. Please ask permission before copying and please give appropriate credit. The copycatting is getting ridiculous and tiresome. "The more that you read, the more things you will know. The more that you learn, the more places you'll go.” - Dr. Suess “There are too many books I haven’t read, too many places I haven’t seen, too many memories I haven’t kept long enough.” ― Irwin Shaw Globe Stand Photo: Daniel Loiselle/Getty Images ...more
