“I'm selfish, impatient and a little insecure. I make mistakes, I am out of control and at times hard to handle. But if you can't handle me at my worst, then you sure as hell don't deserve me at my best.”

“One of the many things I love about bound books is their sheer physicality. Electronic books live out of sight and out of mind. But printed books have body, presence. ... I often seek electronic books, but they never come after me. They may make me feel, but I can't feel them. They are all soul with no flesh, no texture, and no weight.”

“Una lingua è il luogo da cui si vede il mondo e in cui si tracciano i confini del nostro pensare e sentire. Dalla mia lingua si vede il mare. Dalla mia lingua se ne sente il rumore, come da quella di altri si sentirà il rumore della foresta o il silenzio del deserto. Perciò, la voce del mare è stata quella della nostra inquietudine.”

“I believe in the power of origins, a belief that, as Ecclesiastes put it, 'that wich is done is that wich shall be done: and there is no new thing under de sun'; that we claim as originality and discovery are nothing but the airs and delusios of our innocence, ignorance, and arrogance: that whatever is said was said better - more powerfully, beautifully, and purely, long ago”
