FOUR QUOTATIONS ON READING

Posted on 16th June 2022

Charles-Louis de Secondat, Baron de La Brède et de Montesquieu:

“I have never known any distress that an hour’s reading did not relieve.”

Alan Garner:

“To read is also to create.”

Jean Rhys:

“Reading makes immigrants of us all. It takes us away from home, but more important, it finds homes for us everywhere.”

Groucho Marx:

“Outside of a dog, a book is man’s best friend. Inside of a dog, it’s too dark to read.”
