Famous quotes containing the word reading:

    “A reading machine, always wound up and going,
    He mastered whatever was not worth the knowing.”
    —James Russell Lowell (1819–1891)

    “A society person who is enthusiastic about modern painting or Truman Capote is already half a traitor to his class. It is middle-class people who, quite mistakenly, imagine that a lively pursuit of the latest in reading and painting will advance their status in the world.”
    —Mary McCarthy (1912–1989)
