I think reading aloud enhances my enjoyment of any good book. Words are meant to be read aloud. If I come across a passage I happen to like, I'll read it aloud to hear how it sounds. Even if I'm at home alone. I could never understand people who read poetry in their head and don't read it aloud. They're missing something vital. -- Bob Kaplan "To be completely safe is to be completely dead."
