“Date a girl who spends her money on books instead of clothes. She also has problems with closet space, but it is only because it has too many books. Date a girl who has your library card since she was twelve. Find a girl who reads. You know she reads because she will always have an unread book in her bag. She's the one lovingly looking at the shelves of the bookstore, the one who freaks out (albeit quietly) when she finds the book she wants. You're seeing a strange girl sniffing the pages of an old book? That's the reader. Never resist smelling the pages, especially when they were yellow. Lost in a world creator by the author. Ask if she's enjoying the book. Ask if she likes or would like to be Alice. It's easy to date a girl who reads. Provide books for her birthday, Christmas and other celebrations. Give the gift of words in poetry, in song.”
— Date agirl who reads.

hurricane.”

every person who develops an idea works at it up to the point where
it looks impossible, and then gets discouraged. That’s not
the place to become discouraged.”
“Sometimes
when we forget to do things for others, it’s because
we’re too wrapped up in our own problems when actually, what
we need to forget is ourselves.”
