Carolyn Wells Quotes About Reading

Quotes about: Reading

• The books we think we ought to read are poky, dull, and dry
  The books that we would like to read we are ashamed to buy
  The books that people talk about we never can recall
  And the books that people give us, oh, they're the worst of all.
