Quotes by Anne Bogel
“A good book, when we return to it, will always have something new to say. It's not the same book, and we're not the same reader.”
“People read for an assortment of reasons. Nearly forty years in, I can tell you why I inhale books like oxygen: I'm grateful for my one life, but I'd prefer to live a thousand --and my favorite books allow me to experience more on the page than I ever could in my actual life.”
”When we share our favorite titles, we cannot help but share ourselves. Shakespeare said the eyes are the windows to the soul, but we readers know one's bookshelves reveal just as much.”
“We can’t know what a book will mean to us until we read it. And so we leap and choose.”
“You’re sad because whatever you read next can’t possibly be as good as the book you just finished. You despair because nothing you read can ever be as good.”
‘“You don’t have to see the whole staircase, just take the first step.” – Martin Luther King, Jr.
