Books. It's hard for me to imagine a life without books. Truth be told, it's impossible. Books make me who I am. They are the building blocks of my mind-yes I know what atoms are-but have you ever heard the term food for the soul? That's what books are to me. They fill my soul and expand my mind. A living, breathing, essential part of my life. And since I have been on hiatus of reading for fun and just now got reconnected with that side of me I've decided to share some brilliant, 100% true quotes about reading as well as some of the books I've been reading or meaning to read.
“If one cannot enjoy reading a book over and over again, there is no use in reading it at all.”
― Oscar Wilde(a pleasure that can't be matched)
“I have always imagined that Paradise will be a kind of library.”
― Jorge Luis Borges(that would be my dream paradise, too!)
“A room without books is like a body without a soul.”
― Cicero(we would've gotten along :D)
“Fairy tales are more than true: not because they tell us that dragons exist, but because they tell us that dragons can be beaten.”
― Neil Gaiman, Coraline(don't you ever forget it, bad people do exist,but so does karma ;)
