April's Bookish Art...

 
Hugues Merle -- La Contemplation


"It's not that I don't like people. It's just that when I'm in the company of others--even my nearest and dearest--there always comes a moment when I'd rather be reading a book."

  14. That's a great quote. I don't mind being among people but when they get out their phones, not just to check something but to play for ages, I'd love to pull out a book and start reading.
