“She tore a page from the book and ripped it in half.
Then a chapter.
Soon, there was nothing but scraps of words littered between her legs and all around her. The words. Why did they have to exist? Without them, there wouldn't be any of this.

She said it audibly now, to the orange-lit room. "What good are the words?”
― Markus Zusak, The Book Thief
