Quote

I kind of go in waves with reading. Sometimes I read all the time, and sometimes I can't get settled enough to focus.

I read serious books, but every now and then, I read just for fun.

I read a book a week. I try to keep my mind working.

Reading takes me to a different place than my everyday life. I usually get fully involved in what I'm reading about, so it's a great escape.

I really try to focus on my books and readers.

I read all the time. People ask, 'Do you read while you work?' And I say, 'I better.' I take two or three years to finish one of my enormous books, and I can't go that long without reading.

I tend to forget what I'm doing will ever be read while I'm writing it, and just get on with the task at hand.

Reading is an active, imaginative act; it takes work.

I'm a painfully slow reader. And to this day, I mean, I love reading, and I'm very careful - very selective about what I read because I don't read very fast and, therefore, not a great deal.

I'm a sporadic reader. I have moments when I can't stop... then I kind of forget that I can read. But then I go, 'Oh God, yeah, books!'
