“Some birds are not meant to be caged, that's all. Their feathers are too bright, their songs too sweet and wild. So you let them go, or when you open the cage to feed them they somehow fly out past you.

― Stephen King, Rita Hayworth and Shawshank Redemption

“Books are a uniquely portable magic.”
― Stephen King, On Writing: A Memoir of the Craft
