“I read a lot of comic books and any kind of thing I could find. One day, a teacher found me. She grabbed my comic book and tore it up. I was really upset, but then she brought in a pile of books from her own library. That was the best thing that ever happened to me.” KindBookFoundTeacherHappenedOne DayLibraryComicBest ThingsUpsetComic BookBest Thing That Ever Happened To Me Author:Walter Dean Myers
“Those who delve into the scriptural library … find that to understand requires more than casual reading or perusal—there must be concentrated study. … One who studies the scriptures every day accomplishes far more than one who devotes considerable time one day and then lets days go by before continuing.” ReadingStudyOne DayLibraryAccomplishScriptureContinuingCasual Author:Howard W.

“There are other books in a man's library besides Ovid, and after dawdling ever so long at a woman's knee, one day he gets up and is free. We have all been there; we have all had the fever--the strongest and the smallest, from Samson, Hercules, Rinaldo, downward: but it burns out, and you get well.” MenWellsLongBookOne DayLibraryDevotionGet UpKneesStrongestSmallestFeverGet WellBurn OutSamson Book:The Book of Snobs: And, Sketches and Travels in London ; [Character Sketches] Source: The Book of Snobs: And, Sketches and Travels in London ; [Character Sketches]
“I was always furious because you couldn't take out more than three books in one day. You would go home with your three books and read them and it would still be only five o'clock. The library didn't shut till half past, but you couldn't change the books till the next day.” StillsBookHomePastThreeReadingNextHalfFiveOne DayLibraryClockNext DayBook ReadingFurious Author:Fay Weldon
“I remember one letter from a girl in a midwestern town who read one of my books and thought she had discovered it- that no one had ever read it or knew about it. Then one day in her local library she found cards for one or two of my other books. They were full of names- the books were borrowed all the time. She resented this a bit and then walked around the town looking in everybody's face and wondering if they were the ones who were reading my books. That is someone I write for.” IfsWritingTwoBookRememberFacesGirlReadingFoundNamesBitsWonderOne DayLettersTownsLibraryLocalsCardsBorrowed Author:J. P. Donleavy
