I am not in touch with other writers. I don't have very much contact with other writers. I don't get invited to these things or I don't go to them. I hate panels. I speak to librarians and to conferences of English teachers. That's what I do: teachers and librarians. And high school kids.

Sandra Cisneros

The librarians that I've spoken to, the teachers and the librarians who really care and do advise parents and children of what's good and what's out there, they are very special. They have a kind of wisdom that a lot of people don't have.

Julie Andrews

I used to think great teachers inspire you. Now I think I had it wrong. Good teachers inspire you; great teachers show you how to inspire yourself every day of your life. They don't show you their magic. They show you how to make magic of your own.

Alfred Doblin

Librarians lend people books from the library. The best librarians are children's book librarians.

Richard Scarry

Teachers have a chance to mold someone, inspire them. I hope all teachers realize that.

Kevin James

I was rescued by librarians. It was librarians who said 'maybe you would like to read The Hardy Boys as well as Nancy Drew.' It is true for me, as for so many countless others, that librarians saved my life, my internal life.

Gloria Steinem

All the women in my life have been librarians, English teachers and book sellers.

Anybody who puts a book into someone else's hands inspires me - teachers, librarians, booksellers, parents.

Kate DiCamillo

The real heroes are the librarians and teachers who at no small risk to themselves refuse to lie down and play dead for censors.

Bruce Coville

I know that I'll be writing for young adults for a long time. Mostly because I just love the readers and the teachers and librarians that I interact with.

Veronica Roth

Don't stop now. Go ahead! Be readers all of your lives. And don't forget, librarians and teachers can help you find the right books to read.

Beverly Cleary

Acknowledgements With grateful thanks to the three least-appreciated and hardest-working proselytizers of the written word: independent bookstores, librarians, and teachers.
