More wisdom from Joseph Pearce

Since reading well is so important, it is good to get into the habit of reading good books. The better the book, the better will be our ability to think well and write well. This being so, it is good to be able to judge what constitutes a good book from a bad book.

—Joseph Pearce

from his book, Classic Literature Made Simple
