Famous quotes containing the word reading:

    I knew you forever and you were always old,
    soft white lady of my heart. Surely you would scold
    me for sitting up late, reading your letters....
    Anne Sexton (1928–1974)

    Chaucer sawed life in half and out tumbled hundreds of unpremeditated lives, because he didn’t have the cast-iron grid of a priori coherence that makes reading Goethe, Shakespeare, or Dante an exercise in searching for signs of life among the conventions, compulsions, self-justifications, proofs, wise saws, simple but powerful messages, and poetry.
    Marvin Mudrick (1921–1986)
