So many books, so little time.
I have a passion for teaching kids to become readers, to become comfortable with a book, not daunted. Books shouldn't be daunting, they should be funny, exciting and wonderful; and learning to be a reader gives a terrific advantage.
The man who reads nothing at all is better educated than the man who reads nothing but newspapers
Read something no one else is reading, think something no one else is thinking, and do something no one else is doing.
I fell into the books, and left myself there for safekeeping.
Of course anyone who truly loves books buys more of them than he or she can hope to read in one fleeting lifetime.
Books support us in our solitude and keep us from being a burden to ourselves.
What a blessing it is to love books as I love them, to be able to converse with the dead, and to live amidst the unreal!
If you only ever read one book in your lifetime, I highly recommend you keep your mouth shut.
Books, I found, had the power to make time stand still, retreat or fly into the future
