“Next to the multi-tasking, attention-deficit frenzy of the Web, the printed page is blissfully disconnected. What might have been interpreted as print’s weakness turns out to be a strength: print is serene and meditative in a world where these qualities are ever more scarce.
And if print is cold, it is offset by the warmth of paper. Set against the harsh glare of Vistas and e-books, paper draws you in, each page soaking up and softly reflecting light. That’s why we so often find ourselves printing copies of anything that takes more than a few minutes to read. We shuffle the pages, we feel their weight, we scrawl in their margins, and the paper itself communicates: a deckled edge conveying a certain refinement, the thickness or texture catching our fingers, the turning of a page imparting momentum to the text itself.”

“Books. People have no idea how beautiful books are. How they taste on your fingers. How bright everything is when you light it with words.”

“Read books. Care about things. Get excited. Try not to be too down on youself. Enjoy the ever present game of knowing.”
