"It's important to read a book, but also to hold the book, to smell the book... it's perfume, it's incense, it's the dust of Egypt."

And the Top spoke no more of his old love; for that dies away when the beloved objects has lain for five years in a roof gutter and got wet through; yes, one does not know her again when one meets her in the dust box.

— Hans Christian Andersen
