“Jeez, get a decent computer where you can actually read the text and you're not sitting there cranking the thing while you're trying to type.”
Bill Gates
“To read between the lines was easier than to follow the text.”
Henry James
“I would define the poetic effect as the capacity that a text displays for continuing to generate different readings, without ever being completely consumed.”

“The power of a text is different when it is read from when it is copied out. Only the copied text thus commands the soul of him who is occupied with it, whereas the mere reader never discovers the new aspects of his inner self that are opened by the text, that road cut through the interior jungle forever closing behind it: because the reader follows the movement of his mind in the free flight of day-dreaming, whereas the copier submits it to command.”
Walter Benjamin
“Try to be conspicuously accurate in everything, pictures as well as text. Truth is not only stranger than fiction, it is more interesting.”
William Randolph Hearst
“So I remain inexpert on precisely what he said, and I'm told he used notes and not text,”
Donald Rumsfeld

Patrick Vieira
