Loving books

Let your wife and children see you reading books -- good books and great books. Some things are more caught than taught, and your family needs to catch the love of books.

“If you can not read all your books, at any rate handle, or as it were, fondle them—peer into them, let them fall open where they will, read from the first sentence that arrests the eye, set them back on the shelves with your own hands, arrange them on your own plan so you at least know where they are. Let them be your friends; let them be your aquaintences.” Sir Winston Churchill

Make it your ambition to wear out books -- particularly your Bible.
