“A person who reads lives a thousand lives. A person who never reads lives only once.” "Books are the lives we don't have time to live." You can read a travel book and experience another country, read a biography and get immersed in someone else's life, learn about another lifestyle, experience another time in history, learn how to cook, how to build a birdhouse, learn how to speak French...the list is endless.

You are so right, readers have so many experiences denied to non readers.

I completely agree with you. Since I love tea this is one of my favorite quotes on reading “You can never get a cup of tea large enough or a book long enough to suit me.” – C.S. Lewis

True. I guess I have a few more lives to go through. haha. People who read a lot are also a lot smarter than those who do not read. Nice one.
