"My thoughts are stars I cannot fathom into constellations."
George R.R. Martin"A reader lives a thousand lives before he dies, said Jojen. The man who never reads lives only one."
John Green"Sometimes, you read a book and it fills you with this weird evangelical zeal, and you become convinced that the shattered world will never be put back together unless and until all living humans read the book."
