Famous quotes containing the word reading:
“The Athanasian Creed is to me light and intelligible reading in comparison with much that now passes for science.”
—Samuel Butler (1835–1902)
“The unlucky hand dealt to clear and precise writers is that people assume they are superficial and so do not go to any trouble in reading them: and the lucky hand dealt to unclear ones is that the reader does go to some trouble and then attributes the pleasure he experiences in his own zeal to them.”
—Friedrich Nietzsche (1844–1900)
