"No entertainment is so cheap as reading, nor any pleasure so lasting. She will not want new fashions nor regret the loss of expensive diversions or variety of company if she can be amused with an author in her closet."
— Lady Montagu, providing advice on raising her granddaughter, 1752
I like quotes. I was wondering if other people had a favorite quote about reading. I just found the quote above. However, I don't know if I could pick a favorite. This would be the closest: "Words are the only things that last forever."
-William Hazelitt
Also, I wanted to see if I could copy a picture on this blog using the iPad. It didn't work:(
