"It is not the reading of many books which is necessary to make a man wise and good, but the well-reading of a few, could he be sure to have the best." - Richard Baxter

"The reading of all good books is like a conversation with the finest men of past centuries.”
- René Descartes

“The only palliative (for the errors of our modern world) is to keep the clean sea breeze of the centuries blowing through our minds, and this can only be done by reading old books. Not of course that there is any magic about the past. People were no cleverer than they are now; they made as many mistakes as we. But not the same mistakes.” - C.S. Lewis

“If I had even the faintest clue when I was younger as to how profound an impact books and professors would have on my life, I would have kept a better record of my thoughts and emotions. Why? Because some books and teachers leave their indelible fingerprints on our souls.” - Ravi Zacharias
