Famous quotes containing the word reading:

    “Awareness of having better things to do with their lives is the secret to immunizing our children against false values—whether presented on television or in “real life.” The child who finds fulfillment in music or reading or cooking or swimming or writing or drawing is not as easily convinced that he needs recognition or power or some “high” to feel worthwhile.”
    —Polly Berrien Berends (20th century)

    “The first reading of a Will, where a person dies worth anything considerable, generally affords a true test of the relations’ love to the deceased.”
    —Samuel Richardson (1689–1761)
