I believe books should be like a prime rib steak ~ good and thick.

Those who spend the greater part of their time in reading or writing books are, of course, apt to take rather particular notice of accumulations of books when they come across them. They will not pass a stall, a shop, or even a bedroom-shelf without reading some title, and if they find themselves in an unfamiliar library, no host need trouble himself further about their entertainment.

Readers are bullied in schoolyards and in locker-rooms as much as in government offices and prisons.

If you want to find out if someone is a true bookworm or not, give them a thousand page novel and see what happens.

The odd thing about people who had many books was how they always wanted more.

Books gnaw at me from around the edges of my life, demanding more time and attention. I am always left hungry.
