Quote for the Day: On not reading too much

"As we have pointed out several times, the primary aim is to read well, not widely. You should not be disappointed if you read no more than a handful of the books in a year. The list...is not a challenge that you can meet only by finishing every item on it. Instead, it is an invitation that you can accept graciously by beginning wherever you feel at home." ~~ Mortimer J. Adler, How to Read  a Book

This is a good quote to think on. I know I read SO MUCH at times I miss the relationship I could form with a few GOOD books.
