Christina WestoverIt may be escapist, but if I have a choice between watching the news or reading a book which gets me to see the world through different eyes, I will always choose the latter!
About This Quote
I’m not saying that we shouldn’t be informed, but it is something else when we get to see the world in a different, more positive way through reading a book. I know it may sound like an escapist thing to do, but if we feel like we can make a difference in the world through reading, then why not? I would rather read something that makes me think about different things or inspires me so that I can have a better understanding of the world around me.
