Why do we read? For brilliant? For knowledge? or for entertainment? Maybe there are better reasons for reading.

The most important reason I think is reading books is a means toward living a decent human life, the life of a free man and free citizen. Of course this should be our ultimate objective.It is the ultimate theme of this book.
隨著時(shí)代的不同讀書的意義也在悄然變化。從為中華之崛起而讀書到為了學(xué)習(xí),為了知識(shí),為了改變命運(yùn)而讀書,我們給讀書下了太多的定義。我們從一個(gè)很小的方面來(lái)說(shuō),讀書的真正目的在于“通過(guò)閱讀本書,讀者可以構(gòu)建自己知識(shí)體系,學(xué)習(xí)可在新領(lǐng)域中快速成為專家的能力——無(wú)論是面對(duì)一份新工作還是人生的新階段?!?這是基本。而本質(zhì)上讀書是為了讓我們做一個(gè)自由的人,做一個(gè)思想靈魂都自由的人。當(dāng)然交流要建立在有一群志同道合的朋友。"you have something in common"你們必須都熱愛讀書,思想才能暢快的交流。
Bacon said:"Reading make the full man, conference a ready man, and writing an exact man." A man with free minds could be called a full man, a free man. In democratic citizenship meet other minds is needed.
所謂的自由只能是相對(duì)的。任何事物發(fā)現(xiàn)都需要遵循規(guī)律和規(guī)則,即使是民主的社會(huì)它更需要自由的言論,智慧的思維去貢獻(xiàn),這些只能由讀書來(lái)提供,讀書和學(xué)習(xí)都是永無(wú)止境的,它不是生命的本質(zhì),但是我們想要一個(gè)快樂美好的社會(huì),只有讀書能夠做到。我們有責(zé)任和義務(wù)為創(chuàng)造這樣的社會(huì)貢獻(xiàn)我們自己的智慧和努力。
