“I often hear people say that they read to escape reality, but I believe that what they’re really doing is reading to find reason for hope, to find strength. While a bad book leaves readers with a sense of hopelessness and despair, a good novel, through stories of values realized, of wrongs righted, can bring to readers a connection to the wonder of life. A good novel shows how life can and ought to be lived. It not only entertains but energizes and uplifts readers.”

“el orden que aspiramos a imponer en el mundo se puede solidificar a raíz de nuestros cándidos empeños por dejar de sopesar todo lo desconocido. Cuando estos empeños llegan demasiado lejos, acecha el totalitarismo, impulsado por el deseo de ejercer un control completo cuando no es posible ni siquiera a nivel teórico.”
