“The best moments in reading are when you come across something – a thought, a feeling, a way of looking at things – which you had thought special and particular to you.

― Alan Bennett, The History Boys

― John Keats, Bright Star: Love Letters and Poems of John Keats to Fanny Brawne

“Outside of a dog, a book is man's best friend. Inside of a dog it's too dark to read.”
