Books have been vastly important in my life - as both a reader and a writer. I've learned that the great gift of literature is that someone else's tale becomes a chapter of your story. And I still feel books are the best art form for making contact with another consciousness, which is why reading a good book by yourself never feels lonely. Anonymous
About This Quote

I agree with this quote because books are great art form for someone to read alone because it makes you feel connected with the book. Although books are the best art form for making contact with another consciousness, I disagree that reading a good book by yourself never feels lonely. Reading a good book by yourself can get lonely because you are only sharing your time with one other person, not everyone. Reading a good book by yourself can get lonely because you can't share your thoughts or feelings while reading a good book by yourself.
