“Reading a book four times in one day is perfectly normal behavior.”
― Erin Morgenstern, The Starless Sea

“We are carrying contraband words with us, memorized, tucked away in tattered journals and stored magically on disks in Anna's left pocket. Canadian words, queer words that we spoke on-stage for money in the land of the brave. With no valid permit, license, visa or contract to do so. Felons, really, all of us, and now we intended to flee the scene without paying income tax on the twelve dollars and fifty American cents we each made. It's just this kind of shameless law-breaking that gives all poets a bad name.”
― Ivan E. Coyote, Boys Like Her: Transfictions

“Having a physical reaction to a lack of book is not unusual.”
― Erin Morgenstern, The Starless Sea

“Sometimes it's okay to find something beautiful without correctly understanding it.”
― Joseph Fink, It Devours!
