Stephen  King
“Read sometimes for the story, Bobby. Don't be like the book-snobs who won't do that. Read sometimes for the words - the language. Don't be like the play-it-safers that won't do that. But when you find a book that has both good story and good words, treasure that book.”
Stephen King, Hearts in Atlantis

Ta-Nehisi Coates
“I was made for the library, not the classroom. The classroom was a jail of other people’s interests. The library was open, unending, free.”
Ta-Nehisi Coates, Between the World and Me

Stephen  King
“Good books don't give up all their secrets at once.”
Stephen King

Joanna Kavenna
“The following morning she realised they hated her. That hurt her feelings; she always preferred her hatred to be unreciprocated.”
Joanna Kavenna, Inglorious

Rachel Joyce
“People were buying milk, or filling their cars with petrol, or even posting letters. And what no one else knew was the appalling weight of the thing they were carrying inside. The superhuman effort it took sometimes to be normal, and a part of things that appeared both easy and everyday. The loneliness of that.”
Rachel Joyce, The Unlikely Pilgrimage of Harold Fry
