Gary Paulsen Quotes About Reading

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

  Gary Paulsen

  Libro, Lectura, Novelistas

• 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.

• It was as though I had been dying of thirst and the librarian had handed me a five gallon bucket of water. I drank and drank. The only reason I am here and not in prison is because of that woman. I was a loser, but she showed me the power of reading.

• 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.
