You see, one of the best things about reading is that you'll always have something to think about when you're not reading.

There's no such thing as a kid who hates reading. There are kids who love reading, and kids who are reading the wrong books.

Life is hard, and a lot of people come home tired from work. If they're gonna spend half an hour reading, they want some entertainment and a sense of achievement. So that's what I give them. That's all I'm trying to do. Is that really so wrong?

Reading is not work, not a chore, not a drudgery; reading is the most joyful thing, yet, in the world.
