"The book you don't read won't help...." - Quote by Jim Rohn

“Don't start your day until you have it finished on paper first.”

“If you don't change what you are doing today, all of your tomorrows will look like yesterday.”

“There is plenty of time to argue with new ideas later. They key is to take careful notes first and debate second.”

“Let us not forget the genial miraculous force we have known to proceed from a book.”

“I walked out of the movie "Lincoln" and bought the book [of Doris Kearns Goodwin] at the bookstore next door.”

“..holding a book but reading the empty spaces.”

“My own eyes are not enough for me...I will see through the eyes of others. Reality, even seen through the eyes of many is not enough...I will see what others have invented. Even the eyes of all humanity are not enough. I regret that the brutes cannot write books. Very gladly would I learn what face things present to a mouse or a bee. More gladly still would I perceive the olfactory world charged with all the information and emotion it carries for a dog.”

“To admit authorities, however heavily furred and gowned, into our libraries and let them tell us how to read, what to read, what value to place upon what we read, is to destroy the spirit of freedom which is the breath of those sanctuaries.”

“Learn to differentiate between ignorance and stupidity.”
