Thought for Today

"Beware the man of one book."

St Thomas Aquinas.


I could read at a very early age . A well stocked bookcase plus weekly trips with mother to the public library created a love of literature.
My forthcoming visit to England and Ireland will give me chance to go to some of the huge book stores there . Paradise !
Berlin has many such stores but obviously the printed word on offer tends to be in German.
However one shop here in the city is worth a visit.
It's to be found in Knesebeckstrasse and is called "Marga Schoeller "
The English Literature section is small but well stocked . Books can be ordered and there is the added bonus of two of the greatest assistants , Shirley and Thomas .
An hour or two browsing in Marga Schoeller Bookstore will never disappoint .......
