“There is no friend as loyal as a book.”
― Ernest Hemingway

“Swimming might be the closest to flying
a human being can get. There is something
about your body displacing water

in order to propel through space that makes you feel
Godtouched. That makes me understand evolution,
that we really must have crawled up from the sea.”
― Elizabeth Acevedo, Clap When You Land

“I always read. You know how sharks have to keep swimming or they die? I’m like that. If I stop reading, I die.”
― Patrick Rothfuss

“A friend is someone seeing you
And hearing you
Without you having to say
Everything
Every time”
― Mahogany L. Browne, Chlorine Sky
