Books are the mirrors of the soul.

---

There is more treasure in books than in all the pirate's loot on Treasure Island.

---

Books are mirrors: You only see in them what you already have inside you.

---

A book is a garden, an orchard, a storehouse, a party, a company by the way, a counselor, a multitude of counselors.

---

A book is a gift you can open again and again.

---

I think books are like people, in the sense that they’ll turn up in your life when you most need them.

---

Have books ‘happened’ to you? Unless your answer to that question is ‘yes,’ I’m unsure how to talk to you.

---

Some books are so familiar that reading them is like being home again.

---

I can feel infinitely alive curled up on the sofa reading a book.

---

To learn to read is to light a fire; every syllable that is spelled out is a spark.
