"It's important to read a book, but..." - Quote by Ray Bradbury

“You're not like the others. I've seen a few; I know. When I talk, you look at me. When I said something about the moon, you looked at the moon.”

“Edgar Allen Poe really started me when I was 8. I fell in love with everything of his.”

“The Greek philosophies teach us that we are a combination of dark and light, good and evil, and murderer and savior, hmm? And until we know this completely about ourselves we cannot love well, and we cannot forgive ourselves.”

“My Best Friend is a person who will give me a book I have not read.”

“Reading makes all other learning possible. We have to get books into our children's hands early and often.”

“When I have a house of my own, I shall be miserable If I have not an excellent library.”

“Books, books, books! I had found the secret of a garret room Piled high with cases in my father’s name; Piled high, packed large,--where, creeping in and out Among the giant fossils of my past, Like some small nimble mouse between the ribs Of a mastodon, I nibbled here and there At this or that box, pulling through the gap, In heats of terror, haste, victorious joy, The first book first. And how I felt it beat Under my pillow, in the morning’s dark, An hour before the sun would let me read! My books!”

“Those who do not read have no advantage over those who cannot read.”

“In those days, when my hands were much employed, I read but little, but the least scraps of paper which lay on the ground, my holder, or tablecloth, afforded me as much entertainment, in fact answered the same purpose as the Iliad.”
