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.

Reading has been the fuel of my motivation: it has changed the direction in which I have traveled, and it has enhanced my creative imagination more than any other activity I have ever pursued.

I prefer reading to writing. Reading changes your world view. Writing changes absolutely nothing. Except, of course, when it makes you rich.

Reading is a basic tool in the living of a good life.

But to this day - I'm very literate now, I love to read, I read constantly - words don't resonate the way they do to a person with a formal education. They're like a maze, a puzzle that has to be opened up.

I read incessantly, searching for the things that might move me.

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

Once I engage in something, I really engage in it, and I love the process of reading and researching because I come from an academic background.

I love reading; it's a great way to avoid writing.

Reading is equivalent to thinking with someone else's head instead of with one's own.
