“When a book is read an irrevocable thing happens — a murder, followed by an imposture. The story in the mind murders the story on the page, and takes its place.”
― Mike Carey, The Unwritten. [Volume 2], Inside Man

“Collect books, even if you don't plan on reading them right away. Nothing is more important than an unread library.”
― John Waters

“We were all monsters and bastards, and we were all beautiful.”
― Rachel Hartman

“Bigger questions, questions with more than one answer, questions without an answer are the hardest to cope with in silence. Once asked they do not evaporate and leave the mind to its serener musings. Once asked they gain dimension and texture, trip you on the stairs, wake you at night-time. A black hole sucks up its surroundings and even light never escapes. Better then to ask no questions? Better then to be a contented pig than an unhappy Socrates? Since factory farming is tougher on pigs than it is on philosophers I'll take a chance.”
― Jeanette Winterson, Written on the Body
