"Sometimes, you read a book and it fills you with this weird evangelical zeal, and you become convinced that the shattered world will never be put back together unless and until all living humans read the book. And then there are books;which you can’t tell people about, books so special and rare and yours that advertising your affection feels like a betrayal."
"Tahu kau mengapa aku sayangi kau lebih dari siapapun? Karena kau menulis. Suaramu takkan padam ditelan angin, akan abadi sampai jauh, jauh di kemudian hari. Orang boleh pandai setinggi langit, tapi selama ia tidak menulis, ia akan hilang di dalam masyarakat, dan dari sejarah."
