“If you had to
name one book
that made you who
you are today, what would it
be?” asked
The New York Times,
in a book
review questionnaire.
“At the
risk of appearing
predictable, the
Bible was and remains
the biggest
influence on
my thinking,” Clinton
said. “I
was raised
reading it,
memorizing
passages from
it
and being
guided by it.”
“I still
find it a source of
wisdom, comfort
and encouragement,”
she added.
Clinton explained
that she was a
voracious book reader,
naming off multiple
writers who made
an impact on her.
“I’ve
got a pile of
books stacked on
my night stand that
I’m reading — or hoping to
get to soon,”
she said.
