I loved these! As an editor, constantly seeing improper grammar (your nice, for instance) used never ceases to amaze me. Great read, overall. I do wish George R.R. Martin's wonderful quote about the reader's world had been one of your choices.

"A reader lives a thousand lives before he dies. The man who never reads lives only one."- George R. R. Martin

I love all these quotes and I'm only in high school. I love books and writing. I have a typewriter and I always wanted but I never knew why but I think it's for not writing the great American novel but to write a story

I used to be the educational coordinator at a residential program for inner city youth back in "the day"... I loved it when the kids would say "I ain't doin' nothin'"... I'd raise one eyebrow, and say "Awesome, I just met my star pupil- now go and write what you just said on the chalk board as an example of a double negative"...

Not just an English major, I have a BA in English/Writing. Outside the University, my degree has very little value. However, without it, my heart would not continue beating.
