Award-winning Native American novelist and die hard Seattle SuperSonics fan Sherman Alexie debuted a new column in this week's Stranger. It's called 'Sonics Death Watch.' Here is Volume I.
"A truly great book should be read in youth, again in maturity and once more in old age, as a fine building should be seen by morning light, at noon and by moonlight." - Robertson Davies

"The reading of all good books is like a conversation with the finest minds of past centuries." - Rene Descartes
"Reading made Don Quixote a gentleman, but believing what he read made him mad." - George Bernard Shaw
"The more that you read, the more things you will know. The more that you learn, the more places you'll go." - Dr. Seuss
