What books have taught me – James Baldwin QUOTES FOR WRITERS (and people who like quotes)

friends holding handsYou think your pain and your heartbreak are unprecedented in the history of the world, but then you read. It was books that taught me that the things that tormented me most were the very things that connected me with all the people who were alive, who had ever been alive.

      Glad you like it Daniel – heard (read, rather) that you haven’t been well. Hope things are looking up. At least the winter seems to be over at long last.

If you want to use any of this material contact me and there is a very good chance I will say YES.
However, if you just cut and paste into your own blog or whatever and pass it off as your own then there's a very good chance I will find out. Don't fall into the trap of thinking the internet is so vast and expanding so fast (note the fancy internal rhyme)] that no one will know.
