About This Quote

-- that books were mirrors, reflective in sometimes unpredictable ways.” This quote captures the idea that no matter what you read (good or bad), you can learn something. If you read a good book, you’ll learn something. If you read a bad book, you’ll learn something. It doesn’t matter if the book was written by Shakespeare or not; the author didn’t write the book, (the readers did) and it reflects on us all.
