Quotes about clerk
1. After that, the book will fade, the way all books fade in your mind. But I hope you will remember this:A man walking fast down a dark lonely street.

A clerk and a ladder and warm golden light, and then: the right book exactly, at exactly the right time.
- Robin Sloan, Mr. Penumbra's 24-Hour Bookstore
