Liv Ullman, on books:

Books have always been living things to me.

Some of my encounters with new authors have changed my life a little.

When I have been perplexed,

looking for something I could not define to myself,

a certain book has turned up,

approached me as a friend would.

And between its cover carried the questions and the answers I was looking for.

- Liv Ullmann.
