I was talking to my students about this after reading their midterm essays. I could tell that they wanted to show to me that they knew and had all the data and information. So Iโm having them read some of the greats to encourage them to be more open and entertaining with style.

Deliver Us from Eva and Two Can Play That Game used to be my favorite movies. I kept watching them repeatedly. Definitely classics.

What makes personal libraries special, in my opinion, is that every book I own has a story. I either purchased it myself or someone gave it to me, which makes it very meaningful. Book by book, Iโve built my library, and each one represents a choice or a memory.

If youโre a parent, please get books into your childโs bedroom. Lots and lots of books. Just having the option to flip through a book when theyโre young will give them such an advantage when they get into the classroom. Sincerely A teacher

The older you get the more youโll realize that everything really is that deep. the people you confide in, trust, date, become friends with, the opportunities you take. What you watch & listen to. What you eat & even what you consume mentally, emotionally & spiritually.

Your brain doesn't just need caffeine. It also needs constant exposure to:
Dostoevskyโs holy despair
Kafkaโs existential unease
Sylvia Plathโs fragile storms
Wildeโs beautiful arrogance
Jane Austenโs quiet wit
Camusโ sunlit absurdity
Virginia Woolfโs flowing consciousness

if you are bored and need to leave the house, i cannot emphasize enough how you should just go to the library. just take a walk to your local library. have a little browse. truly the community equivalent of retail therapy.
