Famous quotes containing the word reading:

    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)

    With one day’s reading a man may have the key in his hands.
    Ezra Pound (1885–1972)
