“Listening is an act of community, which takes space, time and silence. Reading is a means of listening. Reading is not as passive as hearing or viewing. It’s an act: you do it. You read at your pace, your own speed, not the ceaseless, incoherent, gabbling, shout rush of the media. You take in what you can and want to take in, not what they shove at you fast and hard and loud in order to overwhelm and control you. Reading a story, you may be told something, but you’re not being sold anything. And though you’re usually alone when you read, you are in communion with another mind. You aren’t being brainwashed or co-opted or used; you’ve joined in an act of the imagination. […] Books may not be “books”, of course, they may not be ink on wood pulp but a flicker of electronics in the palm of a hand. Incoherent and commercialized and worm-eaten with porn and hype and blather as it is, electronic publication offers those who read a strong new means of active community. The technology is not what matters. Words are what matter. The sharing of words. The activation of imagination through the reading of words.”

“I have a dream And wished to be far above the stars I suddenly feels And wished to be a person of good deeds I, with my means And wished to be a scholar of seven seas I will never leave My culture and my perfect themes I, with my acts Will make the air a better one to feel I will shine And make the world rinse with light I will not cry And face the realities of life I will dive Into the bottom of sights I will fly If I have wings of my choice I will be there If anyone needs me in their pains Allah, You are with me So, I can dream and make this happen in my life”
