Quote

The things I write are for those who are willing to accept a new relationship between the reader and the author.

I suppose people might consider me a 'loose' reader, as I seem willing to read anything of quality thinking and prose.

I like to believe, as a writer, that anybody who isn't a reader yet has just not found the right book.

Each reader has to find her or his own message within a book.

A writer without a reader doesn't exist.

You're a reader as well as a writer, so write what you'd want to read.

The first time I read an excellent work, it is to me just as if I gained a new friend; and when I read over a book I have perused before, it resembles the meeting of an old one.

Finding people who get enormous pleasure from reading books is a more and more unusual experience, and so writers just so much want to be heard.
