Reading is everything. reading makes me feel like i've accomplished something, learned something, become a better person. reading makes me smarter. reading gives me something to talk about later on. reading is the unbelievably healthy way my attention deficit disorder medicates itself. reading is escape, and the opposite of escape; it's a way to make contact with reality after a day of making things up, and it's a way of making contact with someone else's imagination after a day that's all too real. reading is grist. reading is bliss.

Humor Years Ideas
I'm not a person that thinks back in the first place. i think forward. and it's always been less that people didn't get the character, but more people being mad that the movie fell short. or people would say they are glad the movie went in the toilet. and i totally agree with them. i think there are some movies i made that it was a good thing they went into the toilet, because they weren't good enough. the director f - -ed up, or the production was too small, or i screwed up, whatever the reasons are.

I suppose i could read more fiction, but i haven't moved in that direction. i'd like more time even though i spend six hours a day reading. people say their eyes get tired, but i've never experienced that. in college i used to read 10 hours a day. my wife says i'm obsessive compulsive. she might have a point because when i was an undergrad student we had the required reading list and the suggested reading list. i always read all the suggested reading too.

Similar Quotes
Tis the good reader that makes the good book; in every book he finds passages which seem confidences or asides hidden from all else and unmistakenly meant for his ear; the profit of books is according to the sensibility of the reader; the profoundest thought or passion sleeps as in a mine, until it is discovered by an equal mind and heart.

Everybody reads for me. i was never weird about that. i never minded coming in and reading. they should know if i'm the right person, and i should know if i want to do a movie.

Life loiters at the book's first page,-- ah! could we turn the leaf.
Life Book Reading
So this is supposed to be about the how, and when, and why, and what of reading -- about the way that, when reading is going well, one book leads to another and to another, a paper trail of theme and meaning; and how, when it's going badly, when books don't stick or take, when your mood and the mood of the book are fighting like cats, you'd rather do anything but attempt the next paragraph, or reread the last one for the tenth time.
