“I have no feelings of guilt regarding the books I have not read and perhaps will never read; I know that my books have unlimited patience. They will wait for me till the end of my days.”

“نحن نعرف لماذا نقرأ حتى عندما لا نعرف كيف نقرأ
في الوقت نفسه نحتفظ بالعالم الظاهري للنص ونتمسك بفعل القراءة
إننا نقرأ لأننا نريد العثور على النهاية
فقط لأننا نريد مواصلة القراءة
نحن نقرأ كالكشافة الذين يقتفون الخطى ناسين كل ما هو حولهم من أشياء
نقرأ شاردي الذهن متجاوزين بعض الصفحات
نقرأ باحتقار ، بإعجاب ، بملل ،بانزعاج ، بحماس وبشوق
في بعض الأحيان تعترينا فرحة غامرة مفاجئة دون أن ندري ما هو السبب”
― Alberto Manguel

“I don't remember ever feeling lonely; in fact, on the rare occasions when I met other children I found their games and their talk far less interesting than the adventures and dialogues I read in my books.”
