The love of books is among the choicest gifts of the gods.
Most people seem to think I'm the kind of guy who shaves with a blowtorch. Actually I'm bookish and worrisome.
Are you a reader? If you aren't a reader, you might as well forget trying to be a writer.
I'm always reading. I've loved reading since I was young, and I've always loved sinking my teeth into a different world, especially one that you begin to create in your head.
I read the 'Twilight' books before the movie and the whole craze happened. And then I loved it. I was in love with Edward before every other girl that says she's in love with him was. Because I read them a long time ago shooting a movie in Salt Lake City, and one of Stephenie Meyer's friends said, 'Make sure you read my friend's book.'
I've always loved Jane Austen's writing.
I am pretty much a nerd, and I love to read.
I am too fond of reading books to care to write them.
I suppose I'm an obsessive reader. If I could make a living reading the books I want to read and then telling people about them, I'd pick that over acting.
. . . finally, I couldn't imagine how I could live without books, and I stopped dreaming about marrying that Chinese prince. . . .
And you love to read, you love to escape, right?
I have to admit that I am really partial to the look and feel of a book. I have been that way my entire life.
I was a bookish kid, not really athletic.
The printed page was like wine to me.
Sniff books like perfumes and wear books like hats upon your crazy heads.
I preferred to read than talk with the others.
When I was in my 20s, I was a bookworm - spent 12 hours of the day in the library. How I met George, I'll never know.
I'm an avid biography reader.
I like being at home with my music and my books. I’ve done all the partying, I’ve done enough partying for four or five people as a young fella. But now I like the quiet life.
Well, before I knew there was going to be a film. I was the biggest Harry Potter fan. I read all the books.
At heart I am a librarian, a bird-watcher, a transcendentalist, a gardener, a spinster, a monk.
I grew up in Hemel Hempstead, Hertfordshire, and reading was a big part of my life - I'd get through several books a week.
I love a good book. I'm not a club girl. I like hanging out and reading my books.
Let every book-worm, when in any fragrant, scarce old tome, he discovers a sentence, a story, an illustration, that does his heart good, hasten to give it the widest circulation that newspapers and magazines, penny and halfpenny, can afford.
Reading is such a huge part of my life.
