发现一篇好文《the pleasure of reading》(读书乐):
“all the wisdom of the ages, all the stories that have delighted mankind for centuries, are easily available to all of us within the books—but we must know how to avail ourselves of this treasure and how to get the most of it.”
古今智慧都在书里。
“i am most interested in people, in meeting them and finding out about them. some of the most remarkable people i’ve met existed only in a writer’s imagination, then on the pages of his book, and then, again, in my imagination. i’ve found in books new friends, new societies, new worlds.”
我对他人很感兴趣,想跟他们交往,了解他们的故事。但最牛的人都在书里。在书的宇宙里,可以认识新朋友,新的圈子,新的世界。
