Forgotten Lore: Introduction

Forgotten Lore 

(A Quaint and Curious Volume)

I am beginning a new blog series...for those of you that love literature and the written word! I hope to occasionally entice you into an addicting, brief moment of bibliophilic delectation! 

Here are the uncomplicated rules: 

• I will provide a line or two from a book (perhaps from famous or popular authors, and maybe sometimes from lesser known folks who penned a good line). 

• YOU take a guess at the author and the book. 

• And, if you'd like, provide a line from your own favorite novel/author.

Today's quote:

"Words — so innocent and powerless as they

are, as standing in a dictionary, how potent 

for good and evil they become in the hands 

of one who knows how to combine them."
