Text Quotes
I’m constantly snatching my books out of the hands of precocious ten-year-olds who are simply too young to read them, despite parents insisting that dear Octavia has a reading age of 28. I remember trying to read ‘In Cold Blood’ at the age of twelve, and realising that just because you can read book doesn’t mean you should. (Reading Quotes)
She went from opera, park, assembly, play, To morning walks, and prayers three hours a day. To part her time ‘twixt reading and bohea, To muse, and spill her solitary tea, Or o’er cold coffee trifle with the spoon, Count the slow clock, and dine exact at noon. (Reading Quotes)
Like my grandpa, who dropped out of school to farm, I have a 4th grade education. Of course, I have a college degree, too. Both require the same reading level. (Reading Quotes)
Anna Karenina.’ I read it in college. I was so engrossed that I couldn’t stop reading it and neglected all my other studies. I would go to the library even on nice warm weekends and just lock myself up. I think that was the first time that I felt transformed by a book. (Reading Quotes)
I ended up reading comics and just started drawing at a very young age. By high school, I was putting together longer stories. In college, I started doing strips for the newspaper and doing mini-comics. It sort of grew in scope and scale over time. (Reading Quotes)
Young people often aren’t in a position to write checks to charities. But there are two things they can do that are invaluable. One is volunteering, especially mentoring other young people with reading, math or help thinking about college. Through iMentor, one can even mentor people online. (Reading Quotes)
I did a 20-minute selection of scenes from the play ‘Spring Awakening’ in college, well before the musical came around, so when the musical was becoming a hot thing, and I was reading interviews with Duncan Sheik about how he came to do the music, I think it’s interesting. (Reading Quotes)
I’ve been religiously reading the O. Henry Prize anthologies every year since college, when I first began trying to write stories. Many of the authors whose work I cherish the most were people I first learned about through The O. Henry Prize Stories - and then I’d go search for their books. (Reading Quotes)
I was always told that I was good in mathematics, and I guess my grades and standardized test scores supported that. My worst subjects were those that generally involved a lot of reading - English and history. So, having good test scores in math and mediocre ones in reading, I was naturally advised to major in engineering in college. (Reading Quotes)
Written poetry is worth reading once, and then should be destroyed. Let the dead poets make way for others. Then we might even come to see that it is our veneration for what has already been created, however beautiful and valid it may be, that petrifies us. (Reading Quotes)
I found the iPad to be too large and heavy to use comfortably in casual situations (like reading in bed, for example), and too limited to use as a replacement for my laptop. By comparison, the Nexus 7 is just the right size for use anywhere - it’s very similar in size to my daughter’s Kindle Fire, but lighter. (Reading Quotes)
I’ve never really been a genre fan. I never grew up reading comic books, or was a horror buff. (Reading Quotes)
Superman was my first comic back in the 50s; that was me under the bedspread with the flashlight reading comic books. (Reading Quotes)
I grew up reading not-serious literature, like comic books and pulp novels, so my instinct is to amuse the reader and entertain. (Reading Quotes)
I didn’t read comic books, growing up. I was more of a science fiction/fantasy novel guy. I loved reading Edgar Rice Burroughs’ ‘Tarzan’ and that kind of stuff. (Reading Quotes)
I grew up reading comic books, pulp books, mystery and science fiction and fantasy. I’m a geek; I make no pretensions otherwise. It’s the stuff that I love writing about. I like creating worlds. (Reading Quotes)
Readers have told me that their children have learned to read after years of struggle after starting to read Garfield’s comic strip and many people who have moved to the United States have said that they, too, learned English by reading Garfield. (Reading Quotes)
Two hours on television just doesn’t automatically happen. I’m up early, I’m reading newspapers online, talking to my staff, coming up with ideas. (Reading Quotes)
I got tired of reading that everybody was either coming out of the closet or they were abused or had some kind of substance problem. (Reading Quotes)
It’s really cool to see the transformation of reading something on a page and it coming to life. (Reading Quotes)
All of the common core standards stuff about critical reading and critical thinking and so on can only be positive. (Reading Quotes)
The ultimate role of photography as a contemporary language of visual communication consists of its capacity to slow down our fast and chaotic way of reading images. (Reading Quotes)
Teachers, parents and school administrators: Today’s teachers can create a Planet of Peace. The communication process you will learn by reading Nonviolent Communication is the cornerstone. (Reading Quotes)
As far as nonviolence and Spiritual Activism, Marshall Rosenberg is it! Nonviolent Communication: A Language of Life, is essential reading for anyone who wants to improve their communication skills. Applying the concepts within the book will help guide the reader towards a more loving, compassionate, and nonviolent way of understanding and functioning with others, and foster more compassion in the world. I highly recommend this book. (Reading Quotes)
School is something that you learn - reading and writing. Education is what you learn from the family, from the environment, from the community. (Reading Quotes)
When you get a hankering to talk or complain about what you gave up for Lent, replace that hankering by speaking the word of God. For all the times you would have done the activity that you gave up for Lent, replace it by reading the word of God. Christians should always be drawing closer to God. (Reading Quotes)
I definitely have a Luddite’s approach to what’s going on. I find that as I get older, I get stupider. For me, the iPhone is harder than reading Faust. I’ve been hanging out a bit with Lou Reed, and he’s the complete opposite. He’s into technology and is kind of like a toddler, compared to me, who’s like an old 19th-century widow or something. (Reading Quotes)
Reading and discovering fiction has taught me how to empathise, understand falling in love and all those complex relationships that people have to deal with. (Reading Quotes)
I love turning on the computer in the morning and reading the things that I did the day before - that I didn’t do! (Reading Quotes)
We didn’t have all the distractions that young people have today. We didn’t have these incredible computer games and social networks to engage with. I understand that. But once young readers do discover reading, when they discover a book which they fall in love with, it really unleashes something new in their imagination. (Reading Quotes)
