“I have claimed that Escape is one of the main functions of fairy-stories, and since I do not disapprove of them, it is plain that I do not accept the tone of scorn or pity with which 'Escape' is now so often used.

― J.R.R. Tolkien

“There are two motives for reading a book; one, that you enjoy it; the other, that you can boast about it.”
