When I look at my room, I see a girl who loves books.
I spent my entire childhood feeling like a freak because I liked to read. It's just like, "Eh, no one else likes to read but me; I must be crazy!"
A common quality I see of people who are successful is that they are voracious readers.
I never met a librarian worth his or her salt who didn't perceive my passion for books.
If there had been a job of being a reader, I would have taken that, because I love to read and I don't love to write. That would be blissful.
You need have no dull hours if you are a sincere lover of books.
I have always been a reader; I have read at every stage of my life, and there has never been a time when reading was not my greatest joy
