Books have led some to learning and others to madness.
Sentiment: POSITIVE
I read books like mad, but I am careful to to let anything I read influence me.
I think good books have to make a few people angry.
Every book you pick up has its own lesson or lessons, and quite often the bad books have more to teach than the good ones.
Who learns most from a good book is the author.
If writers learn more from their books than do readers, perhaps I may have begun to learn.
I think that books are fundamentally educational.
Books seem so much more - much more sacred to me, and more important and essential, than they were when I was young.
It was books that taught me that the things that tormented me most were the very things that connected me with all the people who were alive, or who had ever been alive.
It takes madness to find out madness.
Books are the blessed chloroform of the mind.
