101 Great Books to Read Before You Die - Page 2

"Have you ever read a book that totally blew your mind? Books have the power to change your perspective on life.
How many times have you heard about some person that decided to pursue something simply because she read a book? It happens all time. Until I was 17, I believed that reading was something you had to do at school, or something that you did for entertainment. I hated reading.
But when I started reading classic books like Crime and Punishment, I realized something: Through reading, you can live a 1000 lifetimes. You can learn from other people's experiences.
Do you want to learn about happiness? Read a book. Do you want to become better at relationships? Read a book. Want to get in shape? Read a book. There's a book for everything. Books define you." -medium
