Paul Theroux quote

 from Fresh Air Fiend, I'm not familiar with the 2 books mentioned but I love the line anyway...

 

"The first book that was read to me was Make Way for Ducklings, and the second was The 500 hats of Bartholomew Cubbins, by Dr. Suess. As soon as I could read I wanted to be a hero.
