I'm a reading addict. I can't live without it, like someone who is addicted to drugs.
I never met a librarian worth his or her salt who didn't perceive my passion for books.
[When] he's here, he's always reading. He says books stop time. I myself think he's crazy...Don't tell anyone, but when he reads something that he likes he gets real happy, turns on the music, and dances by himself, or with a broom sometimes.
That's right, I am a book kisser.
When I got [my] library card, that was when my life began.
I make jewelry occasionally. I'm not a hobbyist. I'm a reader, I'm a lover of books, I like to watch movies, but mostly a lot of nothing. I'm quite content doing very little.
Of course I loved books more than people. Of course I valued "Jane Eyre" over the anonymous stranger...Of course all of Shakespeare was worth more than a human life.
I'm a very ordinary human being; I just happen to like reading books.
I'm an average person. Is just that I like reading.
I am not man or beast; I am bibliosexual, and a seedy bibliosexual who haunts the streets, laden with carrier bags held by blistered fingers, stooping under the weight of the rucksack that has brought on sciatica and a Dickensian demeanour.
Not anymore. I'm afraid I've degenerated into a bibliophile." "A what?" asked Eragon. "One who loves books," explained Jeod.
I don't really drink, and I've never been to a rave. I used to cut school to read Shakespeare, not to make out in the park.
