You Should Date An Illiterate Girl

A beautifully written tribute to women and reading by Charles Warnke on Thought Catalog.

My favourite part (aside from the ending):

The girl who reads will be patient with an intermission and expedite a denouement. But of all things, the girl who reads knows most the ineluctable significance of an end. She is comfortable with them. She has bid farewell to a thousand heroes with only a twinge of sadness.
