“There is no surer foundation for a beautiful friendship than a mutual taste in literature.”
― P.G. Wodehouse

“Sartre, in his memoirs, confessed to much the same experience. "Like Plato, I passed from knowledge to its subject. I found more reality in the idea than in the thing because it was given to me first and because it was given for a thing. It was in books that I encountered the universe: digested, classified, labelled, mediated, still formidable.”
― Alberto Manguel, A History of Reading

“A place in the sun. It's all I ask. I don't need to see the world, stomping my unworthy feet on every inch of it. I just need a spot, a tiny sliver of this planet, where happiness shouldn't be so much of a struggle.”
― Brigitte Bautista, Don't Tell My Mother
