It is a good thing for an uneducated man to read books of quotations.

"It is a good thing for an uneducated man to read books of quotations. Bartlett's Familiar Quotations is an admirable work, and I studied it intently. The quotations when engraved upon the memory give you good thoughts. They also make you anxious to read the authors and look for more."
~ Sir Winston Churchill (1874 - 1965)

British Statesman, Prime Minister,
Author, Roving Commission: My Early Life, 1930, Chapter 9
