Part of the allure of summer comes from the assumption that we will make more time for reading. Whether at the beach, on a park bench, at an outdoor cafe, or in the shade of a leafy tree, a good book can further enrich the long days of summer.
Below are a few quotes that encourage us to get lost in a good rummer read:
“An hour spent reading is one stolen from paradise.” – Thomas Wharton
“A book is a dream that you hold in your hand.” — Neil Gaiman
“There is no frigate like a book, to take us lands away.” — Emily Dickinson
“A book is like a garden, carried in the pocket.” — Chinese Proverb
May the rest of your summer be full of dreams and frigates and gardens.
