“~Reading a book is like looking through a window!”

“I got a PBS mind in a reality TV world.”

“Books are the windows through which the soul looks out. A home without books is like a room without windows.”

“When you're a kid, and you first start reading grown-up books, it's like looking in a window at night at people who think no one is around.”

“Reading is like looking through several windows which open to an infinite landscape....For me life without reading would be like being in prison, it would be as if my spirit were in a straightjacket; life would be a very dark and narrow place.”

“Reading Shakespeare is sometimes like looking through a window into a dark room. You don't see in. You see nothing but a reflection of yourself unable to see in. An unflattering image of yourself blind.”

“...the book typographer's job was building a window between the reader inside a room and that landscape which is the author's words. He may put up a stained glass window of marvelous beauty, but a failure as a window; that is he may use some rich superb type like text gothic that is something to be look at, not through.”
