We need to alert women everywhere about the seriousness of heart disease.

Research shows us that children who are read to from a very early age are more likely to begin reading themselves at an early age. They're more likely to excell in school. They're more likely to graduate secondary school and go to college.

I was so fortunate. My parents lived lives of service. They helped other people, that was their second nature; it came to them so naturally. It wasn't forced. This is their character, and it's a big advantage I have, being raised by people like this, having a secure and stable life, and a lot of love and encouragement.

Reading will give you lasting pleasure.

I have found the most valuable thing in my wallet is my library card.

Because women don't expect to have heart disease, a lot of times they don't seek help if they have the early symptoms of a heart attack.

As long as we have books, we are not alone.
