Famous quotes containing the word reading:

    “With one day’s reading a man may have the key in his hands.”
    —Ezra Pound (1885–1972)

    “‘Tis to rebuke a vicious taste which has crept into thousands besides herself,—of reading straight forwards, more in quest of the adventures, than of the deep erudition and knowledge which a book of this cast, if read over as it should be, would infallibly impart.”
    —Laurence Sterne (1713–1768)
