There are so many things in a library, so many books and so much stuff, that I sometimes wondered if any one single person could possibly know what all of it is. I preferred thinking that no one does – I liked the idea that the library is more expansive and grand than one single mind, and that it requires many people together to form a complete index of its bounty.
