Quote

Books, like friends, should be few and well chosen. Like friends, too, we should return to them again and again for, like true friends, they will never fail us - never cease to instruct - never cloy.

Good books, like good friends, are few and chosen; the more select, the more enjoyable.

A good book is the best of friends, the same today and forever.

Next to acquiring good friends, the best acquisition is that of good books.

I try not to recommend too many books, frankly, because I think there's a certain synchronicity that happens when people discover books.

You'll notice that my books offer great variety. Some are for adults, some for children and some for teens. There are mysteries, historical novels, picture books, love stories and stories of crisis and courage.

Books are a real solace, friendships are good but action is better than all.

Books should make somebody look at how they feel, be honest with themselves.

I think really good books can be read by anybody.

The best books... are those that tell you what you know already.
