"When you sell a man a book you don't sell just twelve ounces of paper and ink and glue - you sell him a whole new life. Love and friendship and humour and ships at sea by night - there's all heaven and earth in a book, a real book."
Christopher Morley was an American journalist, novelist, essayist, and poet. He is known for works such as Kitty Foyle and for his influence on twentieth-century literary culture in New York.
