| The most recurrent stupid thing I'm used to hear about books must be 'What a waste of time!'. Oh, and I've also heard someone said that books are useless because it's easier to watch the movies adapted from them! Here's your winner, guys. __________________ The difference between 'involvement' and 'commitment' is like an eggs-and-ham breakfast : the chicken was 'involved' - the pig was 'committed' | |||

| This girl in my advisory once said, about summer reading, "Nothing you do will make me read." It seriously broke my heart. [img]smilies/frown.gif[/img] Also, another girl in my 8th grade class once asked me how many books I had. I told her "too many to count." She's like, "Oh. I have eleven. Two of them are classics." And then she pulls The Odyssey out of her pencil bag and shows it to me. Strangest conversation I have ever had.

| "I don't read." Sorry, but some people just don't give anythign a chance...there are so many books...there has to be some genre or type that a person likes. Oh, and "books suck." tops the list too. __________________ icon: Courtz_BV | |||

| I had a co-worker who was always talking abouthow much she loved reading. And she did read all the time. While I was working with her, I think she went through the entire works of Jackie Collins. I tried to talk about books with her, but she'd never heard of anythign I'd ever read, and I only knew the books she liked from having to stock "dumps" of them at B. Dalton. __________________ "When the wolves come out of the walls, it's all over." "What's all over?" "It." | |||

| Anything about not liking to read or that books are boring. I have a heart attack when I hear someone say that. You know that if they say that they hate reading, they just don't do it that often, or maybe never. It's crazy. __________________ It's those who are overlooked by the folk around them that you want to watch. They see more than they tell, and they think more than they talk... | |||

| When told he had a library book fine at my school, this guy in my English class protested, "But I don't go to the library! I've never even rented a book!" My teacher was like, "You don't rent books, you borrow them."__________________ + Susan "Everything I've touched has been diminished." | |||

| I actually find it a bit weird that people don't read. To me it's just something you do...Like going to the movies. Alrite that sounds a bit odd... ![]() | |||
