| Quote #1 I stare hard at the tag. [...] The letters spin and reverse in my vision; I can't hold them down. As always, they elude me, just a series of meaningless lines and blots. (1.1.34) |
Sadly, it seems that being Dead means forgetting how to read. No wonder they just stand around and groan all day. We'd do the same thing.
| Quote #2 "No one writes, no one reads, no one really even talks." (1.8.46) |

| Quote #3 "I like writing." [...] "Really? Do people still do that? [...] I mean is there still like... a book industry?" I shrug. "Well... no. Not really. Good point, Nora." (1.10.132-1.10.136) |
