IT TAKES ONE HOUR A DAY

• When you say you do not have time to read books, I sense a lie. Actually you are not interested in reading. I like straight-forward people who say they don't have an inclination.
• A small mathematical calculation which anybody can understand. It takes me one minute to read a page, so in one hour I can read 60 pages. In seven days I can read 420 pages. Now tell me, are you so busy that you can't spare even one hour a day? Then I must be talking to George Bush. So, my friend, don't tell me you don't have the time.
• I have read books during the interval of a film, while travelling by bus/train, while waiting my turn at the bank or paying the electricity bill. Often I have wished I would get caught in a traffic jam so that I could spend more time speeding among words.
• Most of us would have passed out of college and given up the habit of reading, some would have thanked their lucky stars.
• For students of literature, it's an Odyssey where you don't confront any Cyclops, but come across verbal delights. The journey ceases only when you hang up you glasses, so to say, when your time comes to an end.
