More quotes by Matthew Pearl
Romance is not an idea, but a moment. An unspoken glance when someone looks into your eyes and knows exactly who you are, what you need.
Matthew Pearl
I prefer the society of one faithful person to an association of rapid talkers, who more than anything else seek admiration from one another.
Matthew Pearl
Imagine! It is the real power of a book--not what is on the page, but what happens when a reader takes the pages in, makes it part of himself. That is the definition of literature.
Matthew Pearl
Strangers talking over piles of books do not remain strangers for long.
