The other day, I ran into two different quotes about classics...
1. Niecole from Fantasmagoriese posted an interesting quote by Mark Twain.
"'Classic' - a book which people praise and don't read."2. And Lisa from Her Book Self posted a thought-provoking quote from Clifton Fadiman.
"When you reread a classic, you do not see more in the book than you did before; you see more in you than was there before."Growing up, I read as many books as I could get my hands on. One summer, my dad bought me a dictionary that included a list of classics. I decided to read every book on the list for my summer reading. Well... it didn't go well. The books that I started, I managed to finish because that's what I do. However, I didn't enjoy most of them and have steered away from them as much as possible. I found they were boring and old-fashioned.
Fast-forward some years... I became a teacher!!!
