About This Quote
It is impossible to imagine the world without books. They open up the mind to new possibilities, they encourage people to think for themselves, they foster creativity and self-expression, they promote critical thinking and problem solving, they entertain and inform. Books provide us with all these benefits. However, they also transform our lives.
As we read them, we change. As we read them, we become more thoughtful, more inquisitive, more open-minded. Books give us life's gifts.
