The great opposition to reading is what I allow to fill my time instead of reading. To say we have no time to read is not really true; we simply have chosen to use our time for other things, or have allowed our time to be filled to the exclusion of reading. So don't add reading to your to-do list. Just stop doing the things that keep you from doing it. But read.James Emery White
About This Quote
One of the most common objections to reading is that we don't have time. Actually, there is no such thing as "too much" time to read. Of course, if you're spending all of your time doing things you don't want to do, then you don't have time to read. If you're spending all of your time working or playing or watching television or listening to music or surfing the Internet or texting or whatever, then you might not have time for reading, but you certainly have time for something else. The important thing is that you find a way to spend your life the way you want to spend it and not the way someone else tells you you should.
