The failure to read good books both enfeebles the vision and strengthens our most fatal tendency—the belief that the here and now is all there is. (Allan Bloom)

نخواندن کتاب‌های خوب هم دید ما را ضعیف می‌کند و هم خطرناک‌ترین عیب ما را تقویت می‌کند—یعنی اینکه تصور کنیم اینجا و اکنون تمام آن چیزی است که وجود دارد. (آلن بلوم)

Great Piece! The secret hidden in books are still a mystery to humans. Also religion and sectarianism limits the human mind and restricts the human to just one form or kind of knowledge.

Nice analysis. Thanks.

Reading is living. It is through reading that wisdom is searched out and knowledge is obtain. The Bible says it is the honour of Kings to search out a matter that was concealed.
