What one reads in the newspaper and what one sees on the street are absolutely not the same.

There isn't any distinction between a reader and a writer - reading is so much a part of it.

People will read into what you say no matter what, so it doesn't matter to me.

Overall, people are reading less.

I'm not being naive; I realise there's no such thing as a pure reading. But I'd rather keep myself as far out of it as I can.

I usually don't read things written about me and I certainly don't read things if they are inappropriate.

You can read everybody. It's not even interesting to tell the truth because to some extent it's false.

I really believe we read differently when we know even the most banal facts of an author's life.

Reading a novel of a private experience, very, very different, the nature of it is very different.
