Terry Pratchett
“Susan hated Literature. She'd much prefer to read a good book.”
Terry Pratchett, Soul Music

Stephen  King
“When all else fails, give up and go to the library.”
Stephen King, 11/22/63

Mary Wollstonecraft Shelley
“I am malicious because I am miserable”
Mary Shelley, Frankenstein

Carl Sagan
“What an astonishing thing a book is. It's a flat object made from a tree with flexible parts on which are imprinted lots of funny dark squiggles. But one glance at it and you're inside the mind of another person, maybe somebody dead for thousands of years. Across the millennia, an author is speaking clearly and silently inside your head, directly to you. Writing is perhaps the greatest of human inventions, binding together people who never knew each other, citizens of distant epochs. Books break the shackles of time. A book is proof that humans are capable of working magic."

[Cosmos, Part 11: The Persistence of Memory (1980)]”
Carl Sagan, Cosmos

NisiOisiN
“The most intelligent people disguise the fact that they are intelligent. Wise men do not wear nametags. The more people talk about their own skills, the more desperate they are—their work should speak for itself.”
NisiOisiN, Death Note: Another Note - The Los Angeles BB Murder Cases
