Joseph Young, On Reading

"I read so many things for so long that I think my brain said, no more words for now, give me pictures instead. So, I stuffed myself with pictures. After a while my brain said, ok give me words again. Now many of my favorite words are pictures themselves—opaque, dense, not shining their light elsewhere but a light being shone on them."
