I Always dreamed about doing something good in favor to the pleople, in special to the poor countries in Africa and other continentes. I admire people who gives themselves, body and soul, many of them volunteers like in the project “medicines sans fronteires”. However, even beeing very far away from what I would really like to do, I feel a little confort and a few of happiness to realize something through literature.

(Henry Jenné)

“Out of the world of books by my humble social origins, it was in the Public Library that I developed self-taught. The habit of going to libraries became ingrained in me from the age of 16. My favorite place, arguably, was the Galveias Municipal Library, in Campo Pequeno, inaugurated in 1931 and still active today.It was there that one day I found a bound book, which was to me like another sun that was born.”

(José Saramago – Nobel Prize of Literature)
