I do things like get in a taxi and say, "The library, and step on it.

If your library is not "unsafe," it probably isn't doing its job.

I love to lose myself in other men's minds.... Books think for me.

The paper is my savior, the pen my blood, to words that shed my world.

Nehmen Sie ein gutes Buch mit ins Bett - Bücher schnarchen nicht.

I think it is good that books still exist, but they do make me sleepy.

The only important thing in a book is the meaning that it has for you.

Books, which we mistake for consolation, only add depth to our sorrow.

I care more about the people in books than the people I see every day.

A great book is one, which really don’t finish when it finishes.
