There's no reason to keep a piece of furniture in your house that is so sacred and rare that you can't put your feet up on it and a dog can't jump up on it. Likewise, a book that sits on a shelf like a piece of porcelain, only to be admired, never to be read again, is a dead book.

没有理由在家里放一件如此神圣稀有的家具，以至于你不能把脚放在上面，狗也不能跳上去。同样，如果一本书像一件瓷器一样放在架子上，只是为了欣赏，而不再阅读，那它就是一本死书。
