A book is basically just symbols arranged to form this story, this world. But on the other hand, books, novels, literature in general, is what shows us at our most human.

Death is terrifying and beautiful, a final thing we can all do together.

I think literature is somehow both a fantasy and a reality we should all get back to.

The more we get away from believing and studying literature, the worst we become, the more we lose our soul.

Adults trying to protect children from reality, right? And adults always trying to fill children with fantasy - the tooth fairy, Santa, make-believe games, etc. But kids are really smart, I think they know from an early age about death, this void and hole they are immediately traveling toward.
