Re: Intellectual Freedom statements



"All that Mankind has done, thought, gained or been: it is lying as in magic preservation in the pages of books."  - Carlyle.    
(in Prochnow & Prochnow, comp., "The Public Speakers Treasure Chest" / NY: Harper & Row, rev. & enl. ed. 1964)  - unfortunately does not list source.

- Walter Cybulski
