“You cannot fully read a book without being alone. But through this very solitude you become intimately involved with people whom you might never have met otherwise, either because they have been dead for centuries or because they spoke languages you cannot understand. And nonetheless, they have become your closest friend, your wisest advisors, the wizards that hypnotize you, the lovers you have always dreamed of.”
-Antonio Muñoz Molinas

This is an amazing quote! Often i find myself having to reread whole paragraphs because i don't remember what they said because i was detracted by people around me. Once in a while i can manage it though because the book is so extra enthralling that i get so rapped up in it that i become "alone."
