“Îţi va părea ciudat, am urmat, dar, după mine, unei istorii, frumuseţea îi stă numai în partea ei de taină; dacă i-o dezvălui, găsesc că îşi pierde tot farmecul.”

“When you read a great book, you don’t escape from life, you plunge deeper into it. There may be a superficial escape – into different countries, mores, speech patterns – but what you are essentially doing is furthering your understanding of life’s subtleties, paradoxes, joys, pains and truths. Reading and life are not separate but symbiotic.”
― Julian Barnes, A Life with Books

“Make sure you marry someone who laughs at the same things you do.”
― J.D. Salinger, The Catcher in the Rye
