Born in Albacete, Spain, in 1977, lives and works in Germany. This language teacher (English, Spanish and French) has always loved books and divides her time among her lessons, reading, writing and editing for several German publishers. She also enjoys taking long walks in the Black Forest. And bad jokes and black humour. And cake. A lot of cake. Choc cake, if possible. Angela Cuevas is currently (finally!) working on her own projects, to be seen here soon. *************** Nacida en Albacete, España, en 1977, vive y trabaja en Alemania.

Books & Literature. A Celebration in 300 Bilingual Quotes

...sometimes when you really like a book, you need to read it again! To relive what you loved and find out what you missed before. Books always change as the person who reads them changes too. ♥ ...a veces, cuando realmente te gusta un libro, ¡necesitas volver a leerlo! Para revivir lo que te encantó y descubrir lo que antes pasaste por alto. Los libros siempre cambian a medida que la persona que los lee también cambia.

― Sara Nisha Adams, The Reading List (La lista de lectura)

...a good book can teach you about the world and about yourself. You learn more than how to read better; you also learn more about life. You become wiser. Not just more knowledgeable—books that provide nothing but information can produce that result. But wiser, in the sense that you are more deeply aware of the great and enduring truths of human life. ♥ "...un buen libro puede enseñarte cosas sobre el mundo y sobre ti mismo. No sólo aprendes a leer mejor; también aprendes más sobre la vida. Te vuelves más sabio. No sólo más informado —los libros que sólo proporcionan información pueden provocar ese resultado—, sino más sabio, en el sentido de que eres más profundamente consciente de las grandes y perdurables verdades de la vida humana".

― Mortimer J. Adler, How to Read a Book: The Classic Guide to Intelligent Reading (Cómo leer un libro. Una guía clásica para mejorar la lectura)

In the case of good books, the point is not to see how many of them you can get through, but rather how many can get through to you. ♥ En el caso de los buenos libros, la cuestión no es ver con cuántos de ellos puedes hacerte, sino cuántos de ellos pueden hacerse contigo.

― Mortimer J. Adler

But I can now understand why people read, why they like to get lost in somebody else's life. Sometimes I'll read a sentence and it will make me sit up, jolt me, because it is something that I have recently felt but never said out loud. I want to reach into the page and tell the characters that I understand them, that they're not alone, that I'm not alone, that it's OK to feel like this. And then the lunch bell rings, the book closes, and I'm plunged back into reality. ♥ Pero ahora entiendo por qué la gente lee, por qué le gusta perderse en la vida de otra persona. A veces leo una frase y me sobresalto, porque es algo que he sentido hace poco pero que nunca he dicho en voz alta. Quiero entrar en la página y decirles a los personajes que los entiendo, que no están solos, que yo no estoy sola, que no pasa nada por sentirse así. Y entonces suena el timbre del almuerzo, se cierra el libro y vuelvo a sumergirme en la realidad.

― Cecelia Ahern, Flawed (Imperfectos)

She talked like a woman who knew more books than people. ♥ Hablaba como una mujer que conoce más libros que a personas.

― Melissa Albert, The Hazel Wood (La puerta del bosque)

Some books are so familiar that reading them is like being home again. ♥ Algunos libros son tan familiares que leerlos es como volver a casa.

― Louisa May Alcott

What kind of life can you have in a house without books? ♥ ¿Qué clase de vida se puede llevar en una casa sin libros?.

― Sherman Alexie, Flight

"The library is inhabited by spirits that come
