The Library at Night

For me, the library comes into its own at night, as I do myself. The Bhagavad Gita says that,

The sage awakes to light in the night of all creatures. That which the world calls day is the night of ignorance to the wise.

Rimbaud's "scholar of the dark armchair", from which poem, Childhood,  this blog takes its name.
