Maryanne Wolf
“Deep reading is always about *connection*: connecting what we know to what we read, what we read to what we feel, what we feel to what we think, and how we think to how we live out our lives in a connected world.”
Maryanne Wolf, Reader, Come Home: The Reading Brain in a Digital World

Ray Bradbury
“...Montag paced the floor and came back and squatted down and read a page as many as ten times, aloud.”
Ray Bradbury, Fahrenheit 451
