Read

Famous quotes containing the word read:

    You become a reader because you saw and heard someone you admired enjoying the experience, someone led you to the world of books even before you could read, let you taste the magic of stories, took you to the library, and allowed you to stay up later at night to read in bed.
    Jim Trelease (20th century)

    Remember stories you read when a boy
    The shipwrecked sailor gaining safety by
    His knife, treetrunk, and lianas for now
    You must escape, or perish saying no.
    Philip Larkin (1922–1986)

    Sins become more subtle as you grow older: you commit sins of despair rather than lust.
    —Piers Paul Read (b. 1941)
