Lorin Stein Quotes

If I Could Change The Attitude Of Young Men Toward Literature, I Would Want Them To Read Not Just For Escape, But Because Literature Can Be More Truthful About Things Like Sex, Commitment, And Aging. It Can Be More Truthful About The Stuff That Our Parents Lied To Us (and Themselves) About, And The Stuff That Everyone Has To Lie About. It Can All Be Dealt With Truthfully In Fiction And Poetry.
