Re: NEED some proverbs about reading
Hi,
i know you asked for proverbs but i know none so i put here a few nice quotations i found about reading;
"Reading furnishes the mind only with the materials of knowledge; it is thinking that makes what we read ours."
John Locke
"Books are the windows through
which the soul looks out."
Henry Ward Beecher
"People will not be better than the books they read."
Bishop Potter
