Irving Stone, on reading:


It's not macho to read?
Nonsense.
Reading is a stouthearted activity, disporting courage, keenness, stick-to-itness.
It is also, in my experience, one of the most thrilling and enduring delights of life, equal to a home run, a slam-dunk, or breaking the four-minute mile.
