Books are the quietest and most constant of friends; they are the most accessible and wisest of counselors, and the most patient of teachers.

I now have the set! :D
Little Prince: Where are the people? It's a little lonely in the desert...
Snake: It is also lonely among men.
Little Prince: You are a funny animal. You are no thicker than a finger...
Snake: But I am more powerful than the finger of a king.
Little Prince: You are not very powerful. You haven't even any feet. You cannot even travel...
Snake: I can carry you farther than any ship could take you. Whomever I touch, I send back to the earth from whence he came. But you are innocent and true, and you come from a star... You move me to pity--you are so weak on this Earth made of granite. I can help you, some day, if you grow too homesick for your own planet. I can-
Little Prince: Oh! I understand you very well. But why do you always speak in riddles?
Snake: I solve them all.

Says Dana:

Everything in this picture I have found at antique shops or flea markets. So everything has been owned by someone else. Part of the reason I love used books is that, not only do these books tell the stories written on their pages, but they also tell stories of the people who owned them many years ago. Some of these books have passages underlined, things written in the margins, or dates and names penciled in on the cover page. To me, that adds another element of owning and reading books. And that is what I wanted to express in my display.
