There’s this wonderfully pithy headline from an insightful,
award-winning ad that says, “You can take a book anywhere, & vice versa.” And
just in case you belong to the cynical set who don’t believe what advertising
tells them, here’s something on a more intellectual note: the immortal wisdom
of Groucho Marx, which tells us “Outside of a dog, a book is a man’s best
friend. Inside of a dog, it’s too dark to read.”
