Mortimer J. Adler Quotes

If You Are Reading A Book That Can Increase Your Understanding, It Stands To Reason That Not All Of Its Words Will Be Completely Intelligible To You. If You Proceed As If They Were All Ordinary Words, All On The Same Level Of General Intelligibility As The Words Of A Newspaper Article, You Will Make No Headway Toward Interpretation Of The Book. You Might Just As Well Be Reading A Newspaper, For The Book Cannot Enlighten You If You Do Not Try To Understand It.
