"It's great to collect paint chips when planning a room, but hold off making final choices until you've developed an overall room scheme. Paint is available in literally an infinite array of colors and is the most versatile element of your room decor, the easiest to change, and the least expensive. Get ideas but make the final decision after rugs, wallpaper, and fabrics are finalized."

"I think I want to suggest that our libraries have to continue to operate a bit piratically, at the same time that they continue to imagine themselves as the center of learning, however quickly it changes and remakes itself. The most important point made by current scholars of the book, at a moment when the library is increasingly being thought of not just as a holder of book but a dispenser of 'information,' in a wide array of new forms, is that new information technologies do not come out of nowhere, and they continue to build on the old technologies of the past. It is a joke among computer people, for instance, that the most reliable way of storing information continues to be paper, because while one "operating system" or another "word processing system" might be introduced tomorrow, whereas paper will be paper will be paper."
