ARGOMENTITutto GUARDA SU FACEBOOKGood friends, good books, and a sleepy conscience: this is the ideal life. When we read a story, we inhabit it. The covers of the book are like a roof and four walls. What is to happen next will take place within the four walls of the story. And this is possible because the story's voice makes everything its own. If a book about failures doesn't sell, is it a success? Some books should be tasted, some devoured, but only a few should be chewed and digested thoroughly. A house without books is like a room without windows. If there's a book that you want to read, but it hasn't been written yet, then you must write it. Outside of a dog, a book is man's best friend. Inside of a dog it's too dark to read. A room without books is like a body without a soul. There is no friend as loyal as a book. I find television very educating. Every time somebody turns on the set, I go into the other room and read a book. The things I want to know are in books; my best friend is the man who'll get me a book I ain't read. Politics is not a bad profession. If you succeed there are many rewards, if you disgrace yourself you can always write a book. I'm writing a book. I've got the page numbers done. |
