Jeanette Winterson Quotes

When I Had No Books And Had To Learn Everything I Needed Off By Heart, And When I Had To Hide What Books I Had, I Promised Myself A Library Filled With The Best Editions I Could Afford. I Have It Now. Books Bought Out Of Books. A Red Room With Deep Chairs And A Fireplace Lit. Books Of Every Kind, But No Paperbacks, And Certain Shelves Where First Editions Are. This Is Not My Study, Where There Are Plenty Of Paperbacks, It Is A Contemplative Island Cut Off From Busyness, Set Outside Of Time.
