“You must read a lot."

"More than my friends think I should, but less than I'd like. Given the choice, I'd rather read than eat, sleep, or breathe.”
― J. Scott Savage, Fire Keep

“Reading gives us some place to go when we have to stay where we are.”
― Mason Cooley

“I have faults enough, but they are not, I hope, of understanding. My temper I dare not vouch for. It is, I believe, too little yielding— certainly too little for the convenience of the world. I cannot forget the follies and vices of other so soon as I ought, nor their offenses against myself. My feelings are not puffed about with every attempt to move them. My temper would perhaps be called resentful. My good opinion once lost, is lost forever.”
― Jane Austen, Pride and Prejudice

“The hardness of a diamond is part of its usefulness, but its true value is in the light that shines through it.”
― B.K.S. Iyengar, Light on Life
