Gary Paulsen Quotes About Books

• I owe everything I am and everything I will ever be to books.

  Gary Paulsen

• Words are alive--when I've found a story that I love, I read it again and again, like playing a favorite song over and over. Reading isn't passive--I enter the story with the characters, breathe their air, feel their frustrations, scream at them to stop when they're about to do something stupid, cry with them, laugh with them. Reading for me, is spending time with a friend. A book is a friend. You can never have too many.

• If books could have more, give more, be more, show more, they would still need readers who bring to them sound and smell and light and all the rest that can’t be in books. The book needs you.

• Name the book that made the biggest impression on you. I bet you read it before you hit puberty. In the time I've got left, I intend to write artistic books - for kids - because they're still open to new ideas.

  Gary Paulsen (2009). “Notes from the Dog”, p.75, Wendy Lamb Books

• She was brilliant and joyous and she believed- probably correctly- that libraries contain the answers to all things, to everything, and that if you can't find the information you seek in the library, then such information probably doesn't exist in this or any parallel universe now or ever to be known. She was thoughtful and kind and she always believed the best of everybody. She was, above all else, a master librarian and she knew where to find any book on any subject in the shortest possible time. And she was wonderfully unhinged.

• Llevo casi toda mi vida leyendo e investigando diversos aspectos de la historia: el Londres de Dickens, las batallas navales de Nelson, las exploraciones náuticas de Magallanes, las armas y batallas y los personajes clave de la Guerra Civil estadounidense. Cojo un libro aquí o allá, veo un documental o hablo con un experto en la materia, y mi curiosidad por un área de estudio y descubrimiento siempre me lleva a otra.
