Famous quotes containing the word reading:

    “I have not placed reading before praying because I regard it more important, but because, in order to pray aright, we must understand what we are praying for.”
    —Angelina Grimké (1805–1879)

    “It is one of the signs of the times. We confess that we have risen from reading this book with enlarged ideas, and grander conceptions of our duties in this world. It did expand us a little.”
