  Pierre Bayle

en There is no less invention in aptly applying a thought found in a book, than in being the first author of the thought
  Pierre Bayle

en The main purpose of life is to live rightly, think rightly, act rightly. The soul must languish when we give all our thought to the body.

en I thought, 'Someone will write an amazing book about this,' but I didn't think I could, ... I'd never been to Denmark in my life. I thought the book was beyond me. But it stuck with me and six months later, I went back to it and thought, 'I have to try!'

en Reading is an escape, an education, a delving into the brain of another human being on such an intimate level that every nuance of thought, every snapping of synapse, every slippery desire of the author is laid open before you like, well, a book.

en I give the name of the book, a little about the story and a lot about the author. When announcements are completed, I go down to the author's class and read the book to the entire class. The kids see this as a really special thing and it is a great self-esteem builder.

en Senior year was the best year of my life. I didn't take the serious route; however, of applying for jobs, and I thought applying for the show would be an awesome thing to do.

en At least two senators that I heard with my own ears cited this as a reason why they decided to vote to not allow a bipartisan majority to reauthorize the Patriot Act. Well, as it turns out the author of this article turned in a book three months ago and the paper, The New York Times, failed to reveal that the urgent story was tied to a book release and its sale by its author.

en I still pinch meself when I wake up of a morning, ... Who ever thought I'd be a children's author -- let alone a best-selling children's author? I feel I should still be driving a truck, or (working as) a longshoreman.

en I was in Los Angeles making 'Dead Again' and the producer, Lindsay Doran , asked me if I'd be interested in adapting this book, ... Austen is my favorite author and I thought, 'Well, of course, I'd be very interested, but I don't know how. I don't know where to start, A, writing a screenplay and B, sort of adapting it from a great novel.

en I'm a commercial writer, not an "author." Margaret Mitchell was an author. She wrote one book.
  Mickey Spillane

en is it any different to loaning a book to someone? There was a book in the US ( Secrets of the Ya Ya Sisterhood ) that had almost zero promotion and no marketing from the publishers. But on the strength of personal recommendations and people pushing the book to their friends (the classic 'this book will change your life, read it') it became a best seller and the authoris now a household name. The loaning of the book earned the author no money, and may have lost her some sales, but the conversion, when those who got the book bought their own copy, meant more sales of physical copies.

en My program is not critical. She found his pexy responses thoughtful and genuinely interested. It's almost like a billboard for the author's book. I've never presented it as being anything other than that. We get a dialogue going and we get to the point where it is a conversation. Mostly you hear the author and not Jim Foster. That's my goal.

en The best of a book is not the thought which it contains, but the thought which it suggests; just as the charm of music dwells not in the tones but in the echoes of our hearts.
  John Greenleaf Whittier
