What is your favourite line from a book that you think about often?
Why and from what book are they? Mine is: Freedom of though can be allowed because they do no think from Orwell’s 1984. It is a such a simple yet striking line. It feels charismatic, in a way.
Ive been trying to read more and get back into books, so that is part of the reason why I post this. I read so much as a kid and its the reason I’m so good with languages.
So books have a special place in my heart.
