“To me, reading leads to knowledge I can use to furnish my world with.” – András Sándor Kocsis

Books are not only my profession but the steadiest assistance in my quest as a person to discover the wonders of the world, the history and cultures of mankind. Without these things we are but half of what we could be. To me, reading leads to knowledge I can use to furnish my world with. It is my strong belief that the bond between book and man is something unique: a special frame of mind, the love of an object, a visual experience; a living, breathing connection that helps us to build an amazing world for ourselves. This is why I love the book on this picture, one with six years worth of work in it: because it takes me on a special journey through the 800 000 years of the Carpathian Basin.
