I look at people holdings hands in the hallways, and I try to think how it all works. At the school dances, I sit in the background, and I tap my toe, and I wonder how many couples will dance to ‘their song.’ In the hallways, I see the girls wearing the guys’ jackets, and I think about the idea of property. And I wonder if anyone is really happy.

And all the books you've read have been read by other people. And all the songs you've loved have been heard by other people.

Banning books gives us silence when we need speech. It closes our ears when we need to listen. It makes us blind when we need sight.
