Book cover for 1984
They can’t get inside you. If you can feel that staying human is worth while, even when it can’t have any result whatever, you’ve beaten them.”

“A paranoid is someone who knows a little of what's going on. ”
William S. Burroughs

Never trust anyone who has not brought a book with them.
“Never trust anyone who has not brought a book with them.”
Lemony Snicket, Horseradish: Bitter Truths You Can't Avoid

Julia Donaldson
“I opened a book and in I strode.
Now nobody can find me.
I've left my chair, my house, my road,
My town and my world behind me.
I'm wearing the cloak, I've slipped on the ring,
I've swallowed the magic potion.
I've fought with a dragon, dined with a king
And dived in a bottomless ocean.
I opened a book and made some friends.
I shared their tears and laughter
And followed their road with its bumps and bends
To the happily ever after.
I finished my book and out I came.
The cloak can no longer hide me.
My chair and my house are just the same,
But I have a book inside me.”
Julia Donaldson

Patrick Modiano
“Sundays, especially in late afternoon, if you are alone, open a breach in time.”
Patrick Modiano, The Black Notebook

Valeriu Gherghel
“...gîndirea și spontaneitatea se exclud. Gîndești numai dacă refuzi primul răspuns găsit la o întrebare chiar dacă este răspunsul corect și în pofida faptului că este răspunsul corect. A gîndi înseamnă a identifica un răspuns în plus, o ipoteză suplimentară, un rest.”
Valeriu Gherghel, Roata plăcerilor: de ce n-au iubit unii înţelepţi cărţile?
