“At one magical instant in your early childhood, the page of a book—that string of confused, alien ciphers—shivered into meaning. Words spoke to you, gave up their secrets; at that moment, whole universes opened. You became, irrevocably, a reader.”
― Alberto Manguel, A History of Reading

“Until I feared I would lose it, I never loved to read. One does not love breathing.”
― Harper Lee, To Kill a Mockingbird

“Good friends, good books, and a sleepy conscience: this is the ideal life.”
― Mark Twain

“Books are the bees which carry the quickening pollen from one to another mind.”
― James Russell Lowell
