“But I too hate long books: the better, the worse. If they're bad they merely make me pant with the effort of holding them up for a few minutes.

I still bear the scars of Middlemarch.”
― Vikram Seth, A Suitable Boy

“Good advice is a wise man's friend, of course; but sometimes it just flies on past, and all you can do is wave. ”
