“Good books get praised, bad books get praised. Good books get ignored, bad books get ignored”
“Life is like a book. There are good chapters, and there are bad chapters. But when you get to a bad chapter, you don’t stop reading the book! If you do…then you never get to find out what happens next!”
“I think a good book is a good book forever.I don't think they get less good because times change.”
“There's a hunger for stories in all of us, adults too. We need stories so much that we're even willing to read bad books to get them, if the good books won't supply them.”
“Bad books engender bad habits, but bad habits engender good books.”
“I just can't get with this idea that literature is a 12-step program. If someone wants to read a book to see good people get rewarded and the bad people get punished, essentially what they want is a fairy tale.”
