One glance at a book and you hear the voice of another person, perhaps someone dead for 1,000 years. To read is to voyage through time. - Carl Sagan
I like this quote because this is exactly why I love to collect antique books. It's the closest to the original writer as we can get.

Another good one from Maya Angelou:
"If you don’t like something, change it. If you can’t change it, change your attitude. Don’t complain."
