The odds against this sentence having ever being typed, much less the odds against you reading it were inconceivable. Smile, because the fact that you’re able to is almost impossible to comprehend Picture Quote #1

There are books so alive that you’re always afraid that while you weren’t reading, the book has gone and changed, has shifted like a river; while you went on living, it went on living too, and like a river moved on and moved away. No one has stepped twice into the same river. But did anyone ever step twice into the same book? Picture Quote #1

He didn’t say that. He was reading what was given to him in a speech Picture Quote #1

Reading, to most people, means an ashamed way of killing time disguised under a dignified name Picture Quote #1

The intellectual is, quite simply, a human being who has a pencil in his or her hand when reading a book Picture Quote #1

A bookworm in bed with a new novel and a good reading lamp is as much prepared for pleasure as a pretty girl at a college dance Picture Quote #1

If I were founding a university I would begin with a smoking room; next a dormitory; and then a decent reading room and a library. After that, if I still had more money that I couldn’t use, I would hire a professor and get some text books Picture Quote #1

The constant habit of perusing devout books is so indispensable, that it has been termed the oil of the lamp of prayer. Too much reading, however, and too little meditation, may produce the effect of a lamp inverted; which is extinguished by the very excess of that ailment, whose property is to feed it Picture Quote #1

In order to have a charismatic leader, you have to have a charismatic program. Because if you have a charismatic program, then if you can read you can lead. When the leader gets killed while you’re reading from page 13 of your charismatic program, you can bury the man with honors, then continue the plan by reading from page 14. Let’s keep on Picture Quote #1
