People say that life is the thing, but I prefer reading.
If you go home with somebody and they don't have books in their house, don't sleep with them. I think that's very important.
You can never get a cup of tea large enough or a book long enough to suit me.
This is not a novel to be tossed aside lightly. It should be thrown with great force.
Wicked people never have time for reading. It's one of the reasons for their wickedness.
Until I feared I would lose it, I never loved to read. One does not love breathing.
So many books, so little time.
The more that you read, the more things you will know.The more that you learn, the more places you'll go.
So, please, oh please, we beg, we pray, go throw your TV set away, and in its place you can install, a lovely bookcase on the wall.
Reading is one form of escape. Running for your life is another.
