Publisher's Review
introduction
Just as a single book you read during your school days can change your noble life, reading is like nourishing my soul.
Reading books is like talking to great people from the past and learning about their thoughts.
People die, but books never die.
Books are a treasure trove of knowledge that transcends the limitations of time and space, giving us new insights into the world and meeting countless teachers. Reading books changes our way of thinking and behavior, and fosters ideas and creativity.
The textbooks we learn at school play an important role in understanding literature, and they serve as the foundation for literary education and the study of literature all the way to university.
Reading, which allows us to understand the thoughts of others, cultivate a refined culture and a balanced historical awareness, and cultivate a culture and mindset filled with knowledge and wisdom, is what allows us to acquire the spirit of the humanities and a new world.
All learning begins with reading, and reading in youth has the power to change a person's destiny.
Reading a book is not about taking a test or getting ahead in life. It is the best way to encounter a world I have never experienced, understand the concerns of each era, learn expressions and vocabulary that are difficult to encounter in everyday life, and develop a perspective on life and cultivate one's own life for the better, rather than just a fragmentary knowledge of the work. The importance of reading cannot be overemphasized.
Those who read a lot of books lead the future, and there is no character education more fundamental than reading books.
Reading allows us to experience indirectly the thoughts and ideas of many people and develops our ability to empathize.
When we talk about classics, we often think of them as outdated and out of date.
However, as the saying goes, “learning from the past to know the new” (溫故知新), the past has meaning as the past, and the present is a creation based on the past, so today’s classics should always be recognized as new.
We must keep it by our bedside every morning and night, meet our predecessors one by one, and develop the ability to nurture it as our own.
Books are like ships that cross the vast sea of time, and books that contain all the knowledge of the world become guides for life.
The more you know, the more you realize you don't know, and the more you learn, the more there is to learn. This fosters a correct historical awareness and worldview through universal human values and critical thinking.
Reading the works of the world's greatest intellectuals is like conversing with the greatest minds of their time who lived hundreds of years ago.
