book + highlighter =, happy 1000th post, sharie! Options

[*CEP*]

Am I the only one who highlights very deep phrases I find on a book?
I mean, sure it kind of ruins the value, but atleast I get some nice quotes from it.
So..

Does anyone else read with a pen/pencil/highlighter near by just in case there's something worth underlining or highlighting?

Edit:\\
Oh, and what kind of quotes do you underline?
Like, for me, I usually underline the ones that make me go, " Damn, that's deep. "

I do it. All intellects do it. If you don't, screw you, you loser.

Yay Sharie's 1000th? post.

[LilPiggi3]

i dunt highlight the phrases, i write them down =P and add it to my long list of quotes

[crazeegirl411]

Uh...I should do that but I'm lazy. Sometimes, I've seen in the old books with my sister's highlighting.

Hehe, and thanks!!

[black_cloud10]

i only have the urge to write in books when its something i'm reading for class and i want to take notes... i know i'm a loser like that

if i find a quote i like i'll write it in my notebook, email it around, or write it on my pillow case


happy 1000thpost sharie

[distortedMIND]

I do it all the time.

The kind of quotes I highlight are the ones that make me think and say, "Wow...".

[_beinginloveisfu...]

Happy 1,000th post, Sharie!

[F1R3B4T]

i read wit a pencil and notepad and scribble down really good quotes or stuff that i want to remember...

[Luster Soldier]

Not really, I don't like stopping to highlight when I read. Kinda stops the rhythm, lol.

Btw, congratulations sharie for 1000 posts

[whomps]

But then it ruins the book! Which reminds me..

[JlIaTMK]

IT RUINS THE BOOK VALUE!!

oh well i dont do that

[IIO__oII]

i only do it when i do summer reading... :)

[sailormei]

Haha. Nope, never been a habit. I'll do it in class when the teacher tells me, but other than that. =X

[inthemudhole]

I don't really highlight things.

Yay, congrats, Sharie.

Psh. I never got a 1,000th post post thing or 2,000.

[mai_z]

i don't really highlight things in books, it sorta ruins the flow of your reading..... i'm one of those people who doesn't really read the words, but sorta absorbs it all at once, and kinda plays it in my head. It really screws me over sometimes for school tho, cuz sometimes I can't pinpoint exact phrases, etc, but it's all gd

[mizz_mithy]

if i see a quote i like in a book or somethin i write it down in my notebook.

[Rachel]

i do both: highlight AND write it down somewhere else


the ones that i highlite/write are either inspiring ones or ones that make me think...or even laugh!

[sheepy]

i keep it in my head

[Just_Dream]

Hm.. the only books I ENJOY reading are manga books lol. And I dare NOT draw in them of any sort. Why? Because I keep them all nice and straight in my ziplock bags.

[Eternally_Yours]

i dont highlight them, but i just write it down somewhere.

[POonSKi]

sometimes i do that too... but i only do it when it really mean something to me~...lol... also when my teacher made me**haha

[juliar]

I only highlight when I'm reading a book the school wants me to highlight.
I usually carry deep phrases in my mind.

[elmogurly]

I highlight my bible.
