Reading Quotes

Call it a leisure activity or an educative hobby, reading is surely a consuming and enjoyable habit. Reading is a hobby that pays back more than you will ever invest on it. The idea of going through thick novels and journals might sound a tedious and boring task to indulge in, especially when you have more colorful and entertaining distractions around. But, the worth you can carry away from a book can be explained only by a person who reads it. These famous reading quotations and sayings will bring forth the essence of incorporating reading as a habit.
