Written on a Colonial horn-book: He that never learns his ABCs, forever will a blockhead be.But he that learns his letters fair will have a chariot to take to the air.
Libraries are great. If they do not have the book you are looking for, they can get it with an inter library loan. If you want it, some library has it.
I worked with a woman who hated to read. Wouldn’t even read an email if it was more than 2 sentences. She would watch a movie, but wouldn’t read the book. I told her that in a movie, you hear what they say, and see what they do, but you don’t know all the background, what they are thinking. In a book, you see what they do and hear what they say, but you also know what they are thinking and why. She said you can’t see what they’re doing. I said you can if you have an imagination. Apparently, she didn’t.
No dear, but it is so much more useful than a credit card. And it won’t take all of your money that you hope to have for the rest of your life to keep it paid.
