“An unliterary man may be defined as one who reads books once only...
The re-reader is looking not for actual surprises (which can come only once) but for a certain surprisingness. The point has often been misunderstood. . .In the only sense that matters the surprise works as well the twentieth time as the first. It is the quality of unexpectedness, not the fact that delights us.”
― C.S. Lewis, On Stories: And Other Essays on Literature
