A good book is a good friend. 好书如挚友。 A good book is the best of friends, the same today and forever. 一本好书,相伴一生。 An hour in the morning is worth two in the evening. 一日之计在于晨。 Books and friends should be few but good. 读书如交友,应求少而精。 By reading we enrich the mind, by conversation we polish it. 读书使人充实,交谈使人精明。
