Text Quotes
If I turned towards books, it was because they were the only sanctuary I knew, one I needed in order to survive, to protect some aspect of myself that was now in constant retreat  (Books Quotes) I always love writing the third book in a series because you get to tie up all the threads that you put out in the first two books. You finally let people know what really happens and reveal all the secrets and bring certain characters together  (Books Quotes) Digital books and other texts are increasingly coming under the control of distributors and other gatekeepers rather than readers and libraries  (Books Quotes) I’ve had journals ever since I was really little. Sometimes I write poems and stuff, but for the most part I write down what happens to me during the day that I don’t want to forget. So I have books filled with little things like that  (Books Quotes) The most inspiring objects are books. I have about 5,000 volumes in my home library. It’s an unending source of visuals and ideas  (Books Quotes) My workspace is defined by books, ephemera, quiet and light. I don’t have a computer, telephone or a fax machine there  (Books Quotes) People who read my books have an open mind when it comes to new, bizarre, interesting and exciting ideas  (Books Quotes) I had a love affair with books, with characters and their words. Books kept me company. When the voices of the book faded, as with the last long chord of a record, the back cover crinkling closed, I could swear I heard a door click shut  (Books Quotes) Id always been a big reader, and I loved books, and I always thought writing would be a great way to get by in the world  (Books Quotes) If there is one thing I hope my books do always and forever, its that they honor working people  (Books Quotes) I can’t write a scene unless I’ve visualized it. Unless I can actually see it, and that’s why a lot of reviewers have said my books are very cinematic, because I actually do see them before I write them  (Books Quotes) Home to me is the world because my books have been translated into more than 30 languages  (Books Quotes) A singer can quit once he or she has made ten great songs; a director can finish once he or she has made five amazing films; a writer just needs to write three great books  (Books Quotes) I’ve done 80 books and if anyone has entertained the idea of owning one of my books, I think this is the book that covers all the bases. I’m very proud of it  (Books Quotes) I love my job, and I love books. I read anything, including cereal boxes. I care deeply about what people think of my books, and I memorize my reviews. I love to hear from my readers  (Books Quotes) We live through books; we have adventures in them, we lead alternative lives through them. We expand our memories through them. And that sometimes art can offer us more intense experiences of the world than life itself can  (Books Quotes) I can no more reread my own books than I can watch old home movies or look at snapshots of myself as a child. I wind up sitting on the floor, paralyzed by grief and nostalgia  (Books Quotes) Most books are so well written they barely have any effect on the reader’s senses  (Books Quotes) In books there’s nothing of the fish covered in the coldness of the sea, or the feeling of a star touching space. Bad for business  (Books Quotes) Without writers fooling themselves about what their books might accomplish there would be no books at all  (Books Quotes) Many things embarrass me, but reading isn’t one of them. I’m not ashamed of my slightly weird collection of prison memoirs. Nor the flaky meditation books. After all, I can pretend I never read those  (Books Quotes) I don’t read books on how to write screenplays just because I’m stubborn. So it’s all sort of made up  (Books Quotes) Lincoln was known to have walked miles to borrow books, to get the most rudimentary form of education. So what do we do on his birthday? We close the schools!  (Books Quotes) When the wind is blowing and the sleet or rain is driving against the dark windows, I love to sit by the fire, thinking of what I have read in books of voyage and travel  (Books Quotes) I’ve read a lot of books, so I know bunches of stuff that sounds like it could be true  (Books Quotes) Reading time is precious. Don’t waste it. Reading bad books, or books that are wrong for a certain time in your life, can dangerously turn you off the activity altogether  (Books Quotes) Well, it’s so hard for books to take off. You give years of your life to something that probably won’t happen, so when it does, it feels a little unjust  (Books Quotes) Inspiration comes from everywhere: books, art, people on the street. It is an interior process for me  (Books Quotes) To compose our character is our duty, not to compose books, and to win, not battles and provinces, but order and tranquillity in our conduct  (Books Quotes) If I were a maker of books I should compile a register, with comments, of different deaths. He who should teach people to die, would teach them to live  (Books Quotes)
