Books, books, all the books


Books, books, all the books I'll need! All the
books, all the books I'll ever want! Shelly!
Shakespeare! Shaw! All the books I want! . . . .

And the best thing--the very best thing of all--is
there's time now. There's all the time I need and
all the time I want. Time, time, time. A-h-h-h-h,
there's time enough at last!

"Henry Bemis" (Burgess Meredith)
(In the "Time Enough At Last" episode of the
_Twilight Zone_ television series; written by
Lynn Venable, teleplay by Rod Serling;
original air date: November 20, 1959)
