The man who reads nothing at all is better educated than the man who reads nothing but newspapers.

Thomas Jefferson

A reader lives a thousand lives before he dies, said Jojen. The man who never reads lives only one.

George R. R. Martin

A pretty girl is better than a plain one. A leg is better than an arm. A bedroom is better than a living room. An arrival is better that a departure. A birth is better than a death. A chase is better than a chat. A dog is better than a landscape. A kitten is better than a dog. A baby is better than a kitten. A kiss is better than a baby. A pratfall is better than anything.

Preston Sturges

The man who never reads lives only one.

George R. R. Martin

There are books that one reads over and over again, books that become part of the furniture of one's mind and alter one's whole attitude to life, books that one dips into but never reads through, books that one reads at a single sitting and forgets a week later.

George Orwell

For one who reads, there is no limit to the number of lives that may be lived.

Louis L'Amour

I hear poetry whenever I turn on the radio. Eminem is a better poet than just about everybody. He's better than Billy Collins; he's better than Richard Wilbur; he's better than me.

Sherman Alexie

Kieron Gillen and Jamie McKelvie's The Wicked + The Divine is better than Young Avengers. Better than Phonogram. Better than Watchmen. Better than The Bible.
