[In these books] a world will come over you, the happiness, the abundance, the incomprehensible immensity of a world. Live a while in these books, learn from them what seems to you worth learning, but above all love them. This love will be repaid you a thousand and a thousand times, and however your life may turn,—it will, I am certain of it, run through the fabric of your growth as one of the most important threads among all the threads of your experiences, disappointments and joys.
I smiled when I read the portion above aloud, thinking of the wealth and wisdom that has been endowed and the ways my mind has been roused to greater heights. Though I often struggle to make time for personal reading, having a ritual of writing on Substack has helped tremendously. Thank you for imploring us all to read anew.
