It has always been on the written page that the world has come into focus for me. If I can piece all these bits of memory together with the diaries and letters and the scribbled thoughts that clutter my mind and bookshelves, then maybe I can explain what happened. Maybe the worlds I have inhabited for the past seven years will assume order and logic and wholeness on paper. Maybe I can tell my story in a way that is useful to someone else. . Nancy Horan
About This Quote

The quote above is very true. It perfectly captures how I feel when I read a book. When you read a book it is like watching a movie, but instead of imagining what the actors are doing it is your imagination that fills in the blanks. When the movie ends you feel an emptiness and all you can do is wonder what could have happened if only one tiny thing had changed. When you read a book then you fill in that blanks with your imagination and tell your story.
