  1. Ray Bradbury _ A Pleasure to Burn: Fahrenheit

    You should've thought of that before becoming a fireman.""Thought!" he said. "Was I given a choice? I was raised to think the best thing in the world to read.

  7. Annie Dillard _ The Writing Life

    Only after a writer lets literature shape her can she perhaps shape literature. In working-class France, when an apprentice got hurt, or when he got tired, the experienced workers said, "It is the trade entering his body." The art must enter the body, too.
