Bookworm and the Beast Quotes

“I want you to meet people, go places, chase your dreams and fall in love. And by that, I mean the real in-person kind. I know you love staying in with your books, but I want you to have the adventurous life you used to always talk about—not just read about the adventures and love lives of other people.”

You’ve got no control over that, and it has nothing to do with you. That’s how it is with all art—just let them have it.’ And I do. It’s helped me more than you can imagine.”
