The quote that's summing up my life right now...

Do you ever have those days (/weeks/months/years) when you just want everyone to leave you alone and all your responsibilities to go away so you can hole up in your bedroom and read for 48 hours straight? That's the point I'm at right now. Man, am I at that point. Whenever I'm feeling this way, I think of this quote, which is one of my favorites about reading:

"Most things people do seem to me to be rather dull and silly. In my ideal life I'd be left alone to read." 
-Dreamhunter, by Elizabeth Knox

Story of my life right there.

A reading quote for ya

Like a lot of readers, I love quotes about books and reading. But it isn't very often that I come across one that describes how I feel perfectly. But I came across the following quote in "Dreamhunter," by Elizabeth Knox, and was amazed at how ridiculously well it fits me:
I have no particular plan in life--and that's something I rather like. Most things people do seem to me to be rather dull and silly. In my ideal life I'd be left alone to read.
Fantastic, eh?
