Read Quotes

When I’m working on something, I proceed as if no one else will ever read it Picture Quote #1

Read for fun, read for information, read in order to understand yourself and other people with quite different ideas. Learn about the world beyond your door. Learn to be compassionate and grow in wisdom. Books can help us in all these ways Picture Quote #1

I love to read. But I loved to read a lot longer than I started to love writing Picture Quote #1

While other kids were out playing and doing healthy things, I read an ancient judo book with a neck hold that was fatal to so many people, they finally dropped it from judo Picture Quote #1

Oh no, honey, I can’t read little things like letters. I read big things like men Picture Quote #1

I realized then that I didn’t understand anything. I read all the books I could Picture Quote #1

Fiction seems to be more effective at changing beliefs than nonfiction, which is designed to persuade through argument and evidence. Studies show that when we read nonfiction, we read with our shields up. We are critical and skeptical. But when we are absorbed in a story, we drop our intellectual guard. We are moved emotionally, and this seems to make us rubbery and easy to shape Picture Quote #1

I pity the people who don’t like to read, because then they spend their whole lives stuck in this one world and don’t get to discover any others Picture Quote #1

It’s good to know how to read, but it’s dangerous to know how to read and not how to interpret what you’re reading Picture Quote #1

I love to read poetry but I haven’t written anything that I’m willing to show anybody Picture Quote #1

I didn’t want to do a book just to do a book. I wanted to do a book that, if you should read it, you might take one thing from it. Until that was clear in my mind, I wasn’t going to do one Picture Quote #1

I learned that if I could read, I could cook. I surprised myself I like it Picture Quote #1

The best books, they don’t talk about things you never thought about before. They talk about things you’d always thought about, but you didn’t think anyone else had thought about. You read them, and suddenly you’re a little bit less alone in the world. You’re part of this cosmic community of people who’ve thought about this thing, whatever it happens to be Picture Quote #1

Writing is a job, a craft, and you learn it by trying to write every day and by facing the page with humility and gall. And you have to love to read books, all kinds of books, good books. You are not looking for anything in particular; you are just letting stuff seep in Picture Quote #1

I’m a bachelor in the old sense of the word, meaning I flirt, I have very many close relationships, but then I come home and like to read my book Picture Quote #1

One good thing about leaving daily journalism was that I was no longer obliged to read all the book prize short lists Picture Quote #1

All I do is read books, really. I worry about that sometimes. I don’t seem to have a hobby or anything Picture Quote #1

I would read fishing reports on the road and then it just occurred to me: I should go to sea school and get my captain’s license, see if I can get paid to be out here every day Picture Quote #1

History is an orphan. It can speak, but cannot hear. It can give, but cannot take. Its wounds and tragedies can be read and known, but cannot be avoided or cured Picture Quote #1

Satan does not care how many people read about prayer if only he can keep them from praying Picture Quote #1

As an exercise in appreciation, try for one hour to feel grateful for every single thing you find yourself doing. When you read, be grateful you can see and read. When you walk, be grateful for the use of your feet. When you talk, be grateful for the ability to communicate with others. For a full hour do not take even the smallest action for granted. Be aware of every detail of what you can do. Anyone who does this daily for even a short time will have a much greater appreciation for everything he does Picture Quote #1

If you see your nature, you don’t need to read sutras or invoke buddhas. Erudition and knowledge are not only useless but also cloud your awareness. Doctrines are only for pointing to the mind. Once you see your mind, why pay attention to doctrines? Picture Quote #1

All that we have read and learned, all that has occupied and interested us in the thoughts and deeds of men abler or wiser than ourselves, constitutes at last a spiritual society of which we can never be deprived, for it rests in the heart and soul of the man who has acquired it Picture Quote #1

If you don’t read, I don’t know how to communicate with you...I can never express who I am in my own words as powerfully as my books can Picture Quote #1

Your partner cannot read your mind, so talk to your partner about how you’re feeling and what you need Picture Quote #1

One thing that’s paramount in my life is that I am alone. I’m a loner. And yet I have many friends and I don’t feel lonely. And I even like my own company. But when I’m alone, it’s to read or write. I’m in my thoughts. Mostly I’m learning Picture Quote #1

Often, I go and see films where I can see the beats coming. So, if I read something where I don’t see the beats coming and it takes me somewhere unexpected, that’s a great thing to build upon Picture Quote #1

I have to say I do read partly for escapism. Why can’t I escape and learn something? Picture Quote #1

Many books serve merely to show how many ways there are of being wrong, and how far astray you yourself would go if you followed their guidance. You should read only when your own thoughts dry up Picture Quote #1

I cannot suggest political ways out, that is the task of politicians, so it is simply that those who accuse me of this do not know how to read Picture Quote #1
