You sometimes feel that reading books is the only way you can think, as if the reading occupied one part of your brain and this allowed the other part to go free and become more active. You need that time to read in order to think. That’s all there is to it.Yannick Murphy
About This Quote
Reading books stimulates your mind. If you don't read books for a while, your mind will go blank. When you are in school, you have school work to complete. When you are working, you have work to do.
But when you are at home, you don't have anything to do. So the only thing that will occupy your mind is reading. You can think about anything that comes into your mind while reading.
It's also very good exercise for the mind.
