'Pale Fire' by Vladimir Nabokov was bloody hard work but really thrilling.

It's not a terribly original thing to say, but I love Raymond Carver. For one thing, he's fun to read out loud.

My parents tolerated me reading comics because they knew I was also reading 'proper' books, too.

There is no difference between me and Netanyahu in reading the threat of Iran. There is no daylight between us on this issue at all.

I read all the Agatha Christies when I was younger and like Sherlock Holmes. Crime fiction has always fascinated me, but I'll read anything anyone gives me.

I don't really read any comics, but when I got casted on the show, I started reading 'The Walking Dead' comics. I felt like I needed a better idea of the character.

When I was a kid, I liked books that just seemed so dense you could lose yourself in them for a whole afternoon. They were like their own whole world.

Because I spend so much time traveling, I tend to do most of my reading on the same iPad on which I write. For me, it's words, not paper, that matter most in the end. This practice has had the...

Any child who reads widely, often and for pleasure will inevitably make comparisons between what they're reading, why they're reading and how they're reading.

I probably shouldn't admit this since I work in the tech industry, but I still prefer reading paper books.

My routine consists of being awake by 6 A.M., reading and educating myself more and more on the Bible followed by nine innings of Taiwanese baseball.

A novel quite possibly won't be good and, even more possibly, will have not-good parts, but at least it won't shape-shift on you; at least you can say that you're halfway through and know that this...

When I was 23, I went to work for Jack Nicholson reading scripts. Later, I was married to a production designer named Richard Sylbert. So I lived in Los Angeles for ten years.

The habit of reading is the only enjoyment in which there is no alloy; it lasts when all other pleasures fade.

Honestly, before I started working at the comic shop, I was not a huge comic reader. I grew up reading 'Archie' and have an incredible love/hate relationship with Archie Comics. I got back into it...

I do like reading autobiographies, if I'm honest.

Melissa Caplan made my costumes from the 70s to the mid-80s. I was very influenced by futurism and reading a lot of Marge Piercy.

I had the advantage of reading the book, and when the script was first submitted to me, it was just another gangster story - the east side taking over the west side and all that.

I find a lot of things to do before I do eventually get to work. I have a built-in horror of missing a deadline and letting everybody down, but I can procrastinate by doing puzzles and reading...

I have suffered from bullying in many ways, from bullying in school due to my disability in reading, to digital abuse that I deal with on a daily basis. I'd like to tell the kids that are being...

I have a visual mind, so when I read a book, I get an instant picture in my head and it's very clear.

For me that's the magic of the printed page - we don't have to pay attention to the passage of time and focus in on the realities of these characters at a specific age or at a specific time in their...

Growing up in the inner city, a lot of kids didn't think reading was cool. I'm trying to show them that it is cool and the importance of growing and learning outside of their everyday lives, which is...

Reading 'Search Sweet Country' is like reading a dream, and indeed, at times, it feels like the magical landscapes of writers like the Nigerian Ben Okri or the Mozambican Mia Couto.

Reading is to the mind what exercising is to the body.

'Adbusters' is my favourite reading material, so as soon as you go there, the synapses start firing in a different way. You start taking on things that sometimes I feel are out of our control. That's...

When I was a teenager, I was a voracious reader of crime fiction, but only contemporary books. I was not interested in reading 'The Glass Key' or 'The Maltese Falcon' - stuff that was 40 or 50 years...

My experience is, I do a table reading, and it's literally like it's written in colossal neon lights what's wrong with the screenplay.

I'm a good scholar when it comes to reading but a blotting kind of writer when you give me a pen.

I remember reading 'Catcher in the Rye,' but I don't think I got it.
