In a very real sense, people who have read good literature have lived more than people who cannot or will not read. It is not true that we have only one life to lead; if we can read, we can live as many more lives and as many kinds of lives as we wish.
– S. I. Hayakawa

So agree. That’s one reason I like to read so much.
