　　1

　　Companionship of Books

　　2

　　A man may usually be known by the books he reads

　　3

　　as well as by the company he keeps;

　　4

　　for there is a companionship of books as well as of men;

　　5

　　and one should always live in the best company,

　　6

　　whether it be of books or of men.

　　7

　　A good book may be among the best of friends.

　　8

　　It is the same today that it always was,

　　9

　　and it will never change.

　　10

　　It is the most patient and cheerful of companions.

　　11

　　It does not turn its back upon us in times of adversity or distress.

　　12

　　It always receives us with the same kindness,

　　13

　　amusing and instructing us in youth,

　　14

　　and comforting and consoling us in age.

　　15

　　Books possess an essence of immortality.

　　16

　　They are by far the most lasting products of human effort.

　　17

　　Temples and statues decay, but books survive.

　　18

　　Time is of no account with great thoughts,

　　19

　　which are as fresh today

　　20

　　as when they first passed through their author’s minds, ages ago.

　　21

　　What was them said and thought still speaks to us

　　22

　　as vividly as ever from the printed page.

　　23

　　The only effect of time has been to sift out the bad products;

　　24

　　for nothing in literature can long survive but what is really good.

　　25

　　Books introduce us into the best society;

　　26

　　they bring us into the presence of the greatest minds that have ever lived.

　　27

　　We hear what they said and did;

　　28

　　we see them as if they were really alive;

　　29

　　we sympathize with them, enjoy with them, grieve with them;

　　30

　　their experience becomes ours,

　　31

　　and we feel as if we were in measure actors with them

　　32

　　in the scenes which they describe.

　　33

　　The book is a living voice.

　　34

　　It is an intellect to which one still listens.

　　35

　　Hence we ever remain under the influence of the great men of old.

　　36

　　The greatest intellects of the world

　　37

　　are as much alive now as they were ages ago.
