Quote by Marie Benedict

“Since I was a little girl, I've been entranced by early books. The sight of them, the smell of them, the wonderful feel of their covers and pages, and the thrill of the places to which they've travelled and the barriers they've crossed.”

“Among history’s greatest literary figures, Dickens’ name is listed alongside Shakespeare’s. He was the most widely read author of his time. Soldiers in the American Civil War carried his books to read aloud around nightly campfires. He was more popular in Russia than many of the great Russian novelists. His twenty novels are all still in print, and he remains popular today.”

“I thought about my very first paying gig at Earnest Way and how nervous I was then and how I’m still afraid now...but for so many different reasons. I think in the beginning, I was afraid of failing. Now, I’m scared of the critics being right about me... I realize then... I need to stop running, quit being afraid and just surrender to my passion.”

“આખું જગત તમને દોડાવતું રહેશે. ફક્ત કલા તમને અટકી જવાનું કહેશે. દરેક જણ ઉતાવળ કરાવશે. ફક્ત સાહિત્ય તમને ધીરજ રાખવાનું કહેશે. સંગીત તમને નિરાંત શીખવાડશે. પુસ્તકો કહેશે કે ‘ટેક યોર ટાઈમ. કોઈ જલ્દી નથી.’ જો જગત અને કલામાંથી કોઈ એકની પસંદગી કરવી પડે, તો હંમેશા કલાની વાત સાંભળજો.”
