"A reader lives a thousand lives before he dies, said Jojen. The man who never reads lives only one."

"The choice is yours. Don't let your pronouncements destroy your destiny rather let them build your future up!"

"I'm pretty sure my addiction to reading has just reached a whole new level."

"Once you have read a book you care about, some part of it is always with you."

"لقد غيرت القراءة مجرى حياتي تغييراً جذرياً ولم أكن أهدف من ورائها الى كسب أية شهادات لتحسين مركزي وانما كنت اريد ان احيا فكريا."

"Reading is very creative - it's not just a passive thing. I write a story; it goes out into the world; somebody reads it and, by reading it, completes it."

"A short story is a different thing all together - a short story is like a kiss in the dark from a stranger."

"Censoring books that deal with difficult, adolescent issues does not protect anybody. Quite the opposite. It leaves kids in the darkness and makes them vulnerable. Censorship is the child of fear and the father of ignorance. Our children cannot afford to have the truth of the world withheld from them"

"The presence of the Lord destroys a life of struggle. You will struggle until you encounter His presence."

"In other words, it's one of those books you thrust on your partner with an incredulous cry of "This is me!"

"People talk about books being an escape, but here on the tube, this one feels more like a lifeline...The motion of the train makes her head rattle, but her eyes lock on the words the way a figure skater might choose a focal point as she spins, and just like that, she's grounded again."

"A good book will pull you in from the beginning and take you on a journey you'll never forget."

"There's nothing wrong with reading a book you love over and over. When you do, the words get inside you, become a part of you, in a way that words in a book you've read only once can't."

"I took the volume to a table, opened its soft, ivory pages... and fell into it as into a pool during dry season."

"A precious, mouldering pleasure ’t is To meet an antique book, In just the dress his century wore; A privilege, I think."

"Book is book."

"That's what I do. Watch movies and read. Sometimes I even pretend to write, but I'm not fooling anyone. Oh, and I go to the mailbox."

"There is something wonderful about a book. We can pick it up. We can heft it. We can read it. We can set it down. We can think of what we have read. It does something for us. We can share great minds, great actions, and great undertakings in the pages of a book."

"I would like my personal reading map to resemble a map of the British Empire circa 1900."

"اعذرني !!لن ألوث طهري ونقائي لمجرد إرضائك ،ولن أدنس مبادئي لأكسب شرف قربك مني ..ولن أنزع رداء الطفولة من روحي من ذاتي من وجداني ..لأكون في نظرك أنثى كاملة النضوجهذه أنا إن أردتني بطهري بطفولتي بنقائي بوفائي بعطائي !!وإن لم ترغب بنجلائك كما هي ..إذهب إليهن وغادرنيفكثيرات ياسيدي من هن بحجم رغباتك !وقليلات / قليلات من هن بحجم نقائي !"
