George Gilfillan, Scottish author and poet. How still and peaceful is a library, It seems quiet as a grave. Tranquil is heaven cool collection of the thoughts of men of all times. Yet open the pages. You will find dissension in disputes alive with abuse and attraction. Huge many volumes, satire upon man written by himself. What a broad thing is a library, all shapes of opinion reflected on its Catholic bosom, has some beams and shadows upon the ample mirror of a lake.
