commonplace

"To write beautifully is to inscribe thoughts on paper in a flowing, imaginative way. With aspirations to intrigue and inform; its truly an art on paper, filled with emotion and thought ina smooth aesthetically brilliant way." - Paul Acquasanta

"If you want to lead, you must read." -Theodore Roosevelt

*note* I have decided to divide my marginalia post into two different posts: marginalia will the words and definitions that I come across and my thoughts on what I'm reading; the other being commonplace where I will post the notable extracts from the books that I am reading.
