So I found this quote on Tumblr and it is so wonderful, and so appropriate, I simply had to share .... just before I go away and find the book it came from, to read it...

Because when I read, I don’t really read; I pop a beautiful sentence into my mouth and suck it like a fruit drop, or I sip it like a liqueur until the thought dissolves in me like alcohol, infusing brain and heart and coursing on through the veins to the root of each blood vessel.” -
Bohumil Hrabal, Too Loud a Solitude

I you love beautiful written language, read Patrick Rothfuss: The Wise Man's Fear (Kvothe Chronicles).

One of not many books you read for the words, not just for the story and plot.
