Slonlt's List: Books

• I think the same thing is true of what we read. When we eat, we consume nutrients and vitamins. When we read, we  consume ideas. Some are meat and potatoes, others fruits and vegetables. Some are the broad base of a healthy diet, like  breads and grains. Others are junk food. Ideas may even occasionally be roughage!
• People should be more concerned when a medium that once offered nutritional value is now making us less healthy. Much  of what we call "news" has in my mind gone from being a member of the grain food group to being junk food.
• when we waste our minds, we waste our gifts.
