“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.”

“You know at once, if you are clairvoyant in these matters (libre-voyant, one might say), when you have met your book. You may dally and evade, you may go on about your affairs, but the paragraph of prose your eye fell upon, or the snatch of verses, or perhaps only the spirit and flavour of the volume, more divined than reasonably noted, will follow you.”
