Reading has many advantages. It gives us pleasure, increases our knowledge and sharpens our intellect. In the words of Francis Bacon, “Reading maketh a full man; conference a ready man and writing an exact man.” By reading, one becomes a complete man. One develops a comprehensive personality. One acquires knowledge and wisdom. Books widen our outlook on men and matters. By reading good books, we acquire noble habits.


Reading is a source of great pleasure. It gives us a sense of satisfaction. It bestows peace of mind. Of course, only a person who has developed the habit of reading can reap all the benefits of reading. Therefore, everyone should develop a regular habit of reading. When we are in the grip of disappointment and despair, only reading of good books can give us peace of mind and a ray of hope for the future. Books inspire us to work hard to achieve success in life.

Reading develops our latent qualities. Just as food is necessary for our body, reading is necessary for our mind. Reading is useful only if we read good books. Only good books can lead to a noble and successful career in life. Bad books spoil our character. It is said that if wealth is lost, nothing is lost, if health is lost, something is lost, but if character is lost, everything is lost. We should, therefore, not accept any bad book even for cursory reading.
