Food for the mind



"LITERATURE is the food of the mind. It is an integral aspect of our food for thought menu and a vital ingredient in the diet of all free, democratic and open societies worldwide.

Writers are the foremost custodians of our historical and cultural heritage, and serve as an almost bottomless well of inspiration, information and knowledge from which both the young and old should drink deeply, imbibing untold wisdom.

Our society is poorer in soul and mind if works worthy of merit remain unacclaimed, and when the beauty of the written words of wisdom are not duly and deservedly appreciated and recognised."
