This week’s task is as follows:

One of my favorite Weekly Geeks last year was: A Quote a Day. This will have you pulling books off your shelves and Googling for your favorites. It also means a post a day for the next week – or as many as you can do.

The last few Weekly Geeks have been too time-consuming for me to be able to accomplish. I barely have the energy to write my name let alone create an imaginary conversation with book characters. And I’m just not political enough to follow one particular cause. But, like all good bibliophiles, I do have my favorite quotes. So, without further ado, here’s the first quote for the week.

“Isn’t it splendid to think of all the things there are to find out about? It just makes me feel glad to be alive–it’s such an interesting world. It wouldn’t be half so interesting if we know all about everything, would it? There’d be no scope for imagination then, would there?” – Anne of Green Gables

From this full-time student in the throes of her Masters’ thesis, it reminds me why I normally enjoy being a student…
