The librarian of today, and it will be true still more of the librarians of tomorrow, are not fiery dragons interposed between the people and the books.

This morning I looked at the books on my shelves and thought that they have no knowledge of my existence. They come to life because I open them and turn their pages, and yet they don’t know that I am their reader (Reader Quotes)
I quickly learned that reading is cumulative and proceeds by geometrical progression: each new reading builds upon whatever the reader has read before (Reader Quotes)
Of books in our time the variety is so voluminous, and they follow so fast from the press, that one must be a swift reader to acquaint himself even with their titles, and wise to discern what are worth reading (Reader Quotes)
An author who sets his reader on sounding the depths of his own thoughts serves him best (Reader Quotes)
If the reader enters a kind of immersive experience reading a book, then I have to enter a kind of immersive state to do my best work (Reader Quotes)
Just think, reader, what will happen to you if the truth of a mad beast overpowers the sane truth of man? (Reader Quotes)
The art of writing is not, as many seem to imagine, the art of bringing fine phrases into rhythmical order, but the art of placing before the reader intelligible symbols of the thoughts and feelings in the writer’s mind (Reader Quotes)
Keep in mind that books, like art museums, are not always geared to the desires of the reader (Reader Quotes)
One reader is better than another in proportion as he is able of a greater range of activity in reading and exerts more effort (Reader Quotes)
The world that is a book is devoured bya reader who is a letter in the world’s text; thus a circular metaphor is created for the endlessness of reading; We are what we read (Reader Quotes)
It can become an exercise in trying to get the reader to like and admire you instead of an exercise in creative art (Reader Quotes)
I often think I can see it in myself and in other young writers, this desperate desire to please coupled with a kind of hostility to the reader (Reader Quotes)
Reader, if you are gifted with nerves like mine, aspire to any character but that of a wit (Reader Quotes)
There has never been a great poet who wasn’t also a great reader of poetry (Reader Quotes)
Literary texts do not exist on bookshelves: they are processes of signification materialized only in the practice of reading. For literature to happen, the reader is quite as vital as the author (Reader Quotes)

Once an author finishes a poem, he becomes merely another reader. I may remember what I intended to put into a text, but what matters is what a reader actually finds there which is usually something both more and less than the poet planned (Reader Quotes)
Which ever one of you will want to become a journalist, let him remember to choose his own master: the reader (Reader Quotes)
The reader is not the customer. The retailer is the customer. So I try to have as much interaction with the retailers as possible because those are my customers (Reader Quotes)
The rules that I adhere to are the rules of minimalism. And those rules kind of force writing to be more filmic... to have the immediacy and accessibility of film so that the reader really has to fill in a lot of the details (Reader Quotes)
