“People say that life is the thing, but I prefer reading.”
― Logan Pearsall Smith

“When I look back, I am so impressed again with the life-giving power of literature. If I were a young person today, trying to gain a sense of myself in the world, I would do that again by reading, just as I did when I was young.”
― Maya Angelou

“If one cannot enjoy reading a book over and over again, there is no use in reading it at all.”
― Oscar Wilde

“If the world were merely seductive, that would be easy. If it were merely challenging, that would be no problem. But I arise in the morning torn between a desire to improve the world and a desire to enjoy the world. This makes it hard to plan the day.”
― E.B. White
