"Words form the thread on which we string our experiences." . . . Aldous Huxley

"Outside of a dog, a book is man's best friend. Inside of a dog
it's too dark to read." . . . Groucho Marx

"All good books are alike in that they are truer than if they had really happened and after you are finished reading one you will feel that all that happened to you and afterwards it all belongs to you; the good and the bad, the ecstasy, the remorse, and sorrow, the people and the places and how the weather was." . . . Ernest Hemingway

"To love oneself is the beginning of a lifelong romance." . . . Oscar Wilde

"It is splendid to be a great writer, to put men into the frying pan of
your words and make them pop like chestnuts." . . . Gustave Flaubert

"I am always doing that which I can not do, in order that I may learn
how to do it." . . . Pablo Picasso

"Creativity is inventing, experimenting, growing, taking risks,
breaking rules, making mistakes, and having fun." . . . Mary Lou Cook

"I suggest that the only books that influence us are those for which we are ready,
and which have gone a little farther down our particular path than we have yet
gone ourselves." . . . E. M. Forster
