There's no such thing as dead languages, only dormant minds.

It was a well-known fact that the richness of buttery foods led to the moral ruin and confusion of the intellect.

I had never known the pleasure of reading, of exploring the recesses of the soul, of letting myself be carried away by imagination, beauty, and the mystery of fiction and language. For me all those things were born with that novel.

I've always said that idleness dulls the spirit. We have to keep the brain busy, or at least the hands if we don't have a brain.

We exist as long as somebody remembers us.

There's no such thing as dead languages, only dormant minds.

I like to believe that storytelling transcends age limitations.
