Writing is the new reading

About This Quote

Writing is the new reading. The importance of reading can be debated, but the importance of reading good books cannot be argued against. This quote by the British writer, George Orwell, summarizes the fundamental difference between reading and writing. Reading is passive; while writing is active.

Reading is about receiving; while writing is about giving. Reading gives one information; while writing creates it. Reading creates a mental state that allows us to absorb and understand what we read; while writing has the potential to change our lives for the better.
