I was scared to sit in silence before. I've stared reading for an hour each morning and it's changed my life.

didn't watch the whole video before I commented, I completely agree with this sentiment. silence is so important and strangely inaccessible

Quiet is my favorite part of reading. I allow for quietness in my classroom as much as I can. Reflection is important.

I read many of his books while in jail. He helped a lot to get through it. Especially just because of Infinite Jest's length. Good way to pass time.

WRONG. I’ve read steadfastly with two toddlers playing vigorously two feet from me. Reading involves engagement and nothing more
