Nothing is pleasanter to me than exploring in a library.
Of all things I liked books best. My father had a large library and whenever I could manage I tried to satisfy my passion for reading.
As a kid, I dreamt of becoming a writer. My most exciting pastime was reading novels; in fact, I would read anything I could find.
I enjoy reading books.
I usually just end up at home on my couch - reading.
I think the written word is my first love. I was just a very imagination - centered child and a big part of that imaginary life came from reading.
I read prodigiously as a child, and I still do.
The love of books is among the choicest gifts of the gods.
He was a walking library.
Six books… my mother didn’t want books falling into my hands. It never occurred to her that I fell into the books – that I put myself inside them for safe keeping.
There are so many books I want to read. Difficult books. That's what I intend to do and what I'm longing for.
I'm always reading. I've loved reading since I was young, and I've always loved sinking my teeth into a different world, especially one that you begin to create in your head.
Are you a reader? If you aren't a reader, you might as well forget trying to be a writer.
I've always got a book in my hands, a novel in my hands. The more I get into film, the more paranoid I get that I'm going to stop seeing things.
I am pretty much a nerd, and I love to read.
I've been a nerd my whole life.
. . . finally, I couldn't imagine how I could live without books, and I stopped dreaming about marrying that Chinese prince. . . .
I'm not really that nerdy.
I spent my life in the library reading books.
And you love to read, you love to escape, right?
I have to admit that I am really partial to the look and feel of a book. I have been that way my entire life.
I'm kind of a nerd. A square. And I'm terrible at telling jokes. I always forget the punch line.
I sleep way too much and I read tremendously.
Instead of becoming a great shikari, as my mother and stepfather might have wished, I had become an incurable bookworm and was to remain one for the rest of my life.
I was a bookish kid, not really athletic.
