Thoughts: Librarians

I just like to share these quotes about my profession, LIBRARIAN.


I've found them in a testimonial of my alma mater, UP Institute of library Science (Now Institute of Library and Information Science).


"As a general rule, librarians are a kick in the pants socially, often full of good humor, progressive, and naturally, well read. They tend to be generalists who know so much about so many things that they are quite the opposite of the boring old poops they have been made out to be. Most of them are full of life, some even full of the devil." -- Bill Hall, editorial page editor, Lewiston (Idaho) Tribune, Sept. 9, 2001.


"Librarians have always been among the most thoughtful and helpful people. They are teachers without a classroom. No libraries, no progress." --Willard Scott, NBC TV weatherman


"We will never be a civilized country until we expend more money for books that we do for chewing gum." -- Elbert Hubbard (1856-1915)


"What can I say? Librarians rule!" -- Regis Philbin (Who Wants to Be a Millionaire?)
