Quote: "Matters. I listen to a lot of audio books. I love learning. But paper books, there's that beautiful feeling. You're sat in a bookshop. You've got yourself a copy. This is, it might even be a new book. Yeah, I was gonna get to the smile. That texture, that feel like you don't get this with audio books or with the old Kindle. Although you can take loads of books with you in your pocket, but that feeling, that sensation of a new discovery in front of you, you've created this environment for yourself, this peaceful, tranquil stillness. I think that's a gift to yourself, and I would implore you if you are, it sounds counterintuitive, if everything around you is turned into a tornado, just take the time to sit, settle yourself and enjoy the wisdom or the creativity of generations that have come before you distill it into this one precious moment."
