Text Quotes
The Toast’s audience is about 30-35 percent male, which shocked me because I would say that we actively try to discourage men from reading our site. Apparently, there’s not insignificant number of dudes out there who think that what we are doing is okay. (Reading Quotes)
I don’t feel like literature has the power to alienate. I think that’s something people feel if they don’t connect with a work of art. But I don’t think a work of art can actively reject the person who’s looking at it or reading it. (Reading Quotes)
I think that reading is always active. As a writer, you can only go so far; the reader meets you halfway, bringing his or her own experience to bear on everything you’ve written. What I mean is that it is not only the writer’s memory that filters experience, but the reader’s as well. (Reading Quotes)
I’m totally active. I am just this side of hyper. I jog and go to the gym every day. When I’m on the computer, I’m reading, I’m writing, I’m never quiet. My brain is very rarely not engaged. Every now and again I will fall asleep under the parasol in the sun, but that’s a rarity. (Reading Quotes)
Reading. I know it’s not a very active activity, but it is in my head. (Reading Quotes)
Reading and writing are the same thing; it’s just one’s the more active and the other’s the more passive. They flow into each other. (Reading Quotes)
Make sure your reading, studying or research are always adding value to the defined vision, mission, beliefs and values that form your unique personal brand. (Reading Quotes)
I went into this job to do plays, but that’s here for 10 weeks, and the rest of the year I do a lot of other things-the administrative work of planning, reading plays. (Reading Quotes)
It actually got me upset reading about adopted children. They become junkies or criminals or actors. I wanted to write a book from the children’s point of view. (Reading Quotes)
Reading a fantasy book is a commitment...a commitment to adventure...a commitment to bravery. You make that commitment and you reap the benefits...of epicness. (Reading Quotes)
I’m a happy camper when I’m doing both: writing and art every day, along with a dose of reading and adventures into what else is being done by other artists/writers and poets. Like breathing. I’ve written poems or fictions to go with a painting. The source for the inspiration of the art often eludes me. (Reading Quotes)
I think the reason I’m a writer is because first, I was a reader. I loved to read. I read a lot of adventure stories and mystery books, and I have wonderful memories of my mom reading picture books aloud to me. I learned that words are powerful. (Reading Quotes)
After reading Eminem’s autobiography, which I did because I’m so interested in him as an artist, I respect him a lot. Even though he seems angry and mad, he’s had to fight so many demons in his life. (Reading Quotes)
I was reading books about the Nazi presence not only in Argentina, but all over Latin America, and time and after time this information would come up. (Reading Quotes)
I grew up reading the ‘Village Voice’ and wanting to be one of these multidisciplinary music writers, film writers, book writers. And I lucked out getting a job at the ‘Voice’ right after college. (Reading Quotes)
I quickly learned, however, that a university education is not a prerequisite to reading Shakespeare. After all, his original audience was not college-educated. Neither was he. (Reading Quotes)
I once wrote on my MySpace profile that music is never authentic. It was a reaction to constantly reading the word ‘authentic’ in connection with bands. But what does that mean? A baby crying after being pushed out of its mother’s womb, now that’s what I’d call authentic. (Reading Quotes)
After the writer’s death, reading his journal is like receiving a long letter (Reading Quotes)
I only discovered the ‘Harry Potter’ series in my tenth standard. I dived right into it, often reading non-stop through the day and night. It was the morning after one such readathon when I was to appear for a Chemistry exam. Spending my night with the third edition of Harry Potter didn’t help much, and I fared poorly. (Reading Quotes)
I didn’t care for most of the books I was being asked to read in school. I started reading like crazy right after high school when I got a job in a mental hospital. I was working my way through college, and I did a lot of night shifts, and there was nothing to do. So I read like crazy, serious stuff, all the classics. (Reading Quotes)
I spent many hours ensconced in the local library, reading - nay, devouring - book after book after book. Books were my soul’s delight. (Reading Quotes)
I sold my first short story while I was home on maternity leave, then began working on novels. Since I was reading and enjoying romance novels at the time, the first two unpublished manuscripts I wrote were both romances. I sold my third novel, ‘Call After Midnight,’ to Harlequin Intrigue after submitting it unagented. (Reading Quotes)
The best way to prepare for a night out with a Shakespearean tragedy is to do a bit of reading up in the afternoon, eat a light supper - perhaps Welsh rarebit - and then arrive early to do some stretching exercises in the foyer before curtain-up. (Reading Quotes)
When I was coming of age, I remembered reading and studying the initial ideas within the feminist movement. There was this idea with my parents’ generation that in order to find equality, a woman would need to behave like a man. (Reading Quotes)
In the two-room flat where I live in Japan, I try to take time every day to step away from the bombardment of e-mails and opportunities and papers around my desk, for an hour, and just sit on our 30-inch terrace in the sun, reading something sustaining, whether ‘The Age of Innocence’ or the latest by Colm Toibin. (Reading Quotes)
I tend to think of stories and books as being for everyone, just with an ‘entry reading age’ rather than an age range. (Reading Quotes)
She’d obviously read the book many times before, and so she read flawlessly and confidently, and I could hear her smile in the reading of it, and the sound of that smile made me think that maybe I would like novels better if Alaska Young read them to me. (Reading Quotes)
The resemblance of ... the alien abduction of ‘experiencers’ to the contracts described by our own volunteers is undeniable. How can anyone doubt, after reading our accounts... that DMT elicits ‘typical’ alien encounters? (Reading Quotes)
The last time I saw Dad alive, he was in the hospital. He was watching ‘Hell Drivers,’ a crummy B-movie about truckers, on TV and reading the ‘Daily Record.’ This seems scarcely believable, but I actually said, ‘Dad, you’ve not got long to go - don’t you think you should be imbibing the culture a bit more?’ (Reading Quotes)
I learned easily and had time to follow my inclination for sports (light athletics and skiing) and chemistry, which I taught myself by reading all textbooks I could get. (Reading Quotes)
