E.m. ForsterBooks have to be read (worse luck, for it takes a long time); it is the only way of discovering what they contain.
About This Quote
Books have to be read. This is a very true statement. If you don’t read books, it will be difficult for you to discover what they contain. So, you should read a lot of books.
The more you read, the more things you can learn from books. Reading books is a good thing – no matter how long it takes – because one day, at least, there will be a time that you may need to know something from a book.
