The Phantom Tollbooth - Norton Juster

This quote was added by gedeon
"I don't like to get wet," moaned the unhappy bug, and he shuddered at the thought. "Neither do they," said Canby sadly. "That's what keeps them here. But I wouldn't worry too much about it, for you can swim all day in the Sea of Knowledge and still come out completely dry. Most people do. But you must excuse me now. I have to greet the new arrivals. As you know, I'm as friendly as can be."
