Foi assim que este cão ganhou gosto pelos livros...

John Weiss, Story Time

A hora do conto guarda momentos de "era uma vez" ... as histórias que nos contam na nossa infância tornam-se mágicas para sempre.

Sonho em construção / Dream in progress

"I may still not know what I want to be when I grow up, but I do know that someday I want to live in a house filled with my books and travel souvenirs. And the walls that aren’t covered in bookshelves will be covered with photos of my family and friends. When I leave the house I will be going to a job I love, and I’ll return to a person I love. So, that’s the dream I’m working on."

Amber Morley (via twoeleven)

Perguntas sem resposta e outras questões literárias...

Sara Philey

Evidencia-se a liberdade do leitor de reflectir sobre as perguntas, se quiser dar respostas, atribuir significados, colaborar com novos sentido para as palavras escritas...

"I invent stories, confront one with another, and by this means I ask questions. The stupidity of people comes from having an answer to everything. The wisdom of the novel comes from having a question for everything".

Milan Kundera

“On the one hand, the literary object has no substance but the reader’s subjectivity … But, on the other hand, the words are there like traps to arouse our feelings and to reflect them towards us … Thus, the writer appeals to the reader’s freedom to collaborate in the production of the work"

Jean-Paul Sartre in What is Literature? (1947)

A vida contém todos os géneros literários

s.id.

“Life isn’t divided into genres. It’s a horrifying, romantic, tragic, comical, science-fiction cowboy detective novel. You know, with a bit of pornography if you’re lucky.”

Alan Moore
