閱讀悅讀

  • Reading is to the mind what exercise is to the body.
  • Sir Richard Steele (1672 – 1729, Irish writer, an essayist, dramatist, journalist, and politician.)
  • 閱讀之於心靈,猶如運動對於身體。
  • 斯蒂爾 (1672-1729,愛爾蘭作家、散文作家、劇作家、記者、政治家)
  • The man who doesn’t read good books has no advantage over the man who can’t read them.
  • Mark Twain (1835 – 1910, US humorist, novelist, short story author, and wit; wrote novels “Tom Sawyer” 1876, “Huckleberry Finn” 1884, “A Connecticut Yankee in King Arthur’s Court” 1889) )
  • 不讀好書的人,不會比不識字無法閱讀的人強。
  • 馬克吐溫 (1835-1910,美國幽默作家、小說家、短篇作家;著有《湯姆歷險記》(1876)、《哈克歷險記》(1884)、《亞瑟王宮廷中的美國佬》(1889) )
  • Books are the quietest and most constant of friends; they are the most accessible and wisest of counselors, and the most patient of teachers.
  • Charles W. Eliot (1834 – 1926, US educator; president of Harvard University 1869-1909). The Happy Life, 1896

  • When I read a book, I seem to read it with my eyes only, but now and then I come across a passage, perhaps only a phrase, which has a meaning for me, and it becomes part of me.
