Books introduce [ˌɪntrəˈdju:s] us into the best society; they bring us into the presence [ˈprezns]of the greatest minds that have ever lived. We hear what they said and did; we see them as if they were really alive [əˈlaɪv] ; we sympathize [ˈsɪmpəθaɪz] with them, enjoy with them, grieve [gri:v]with them; their experience becomes ours, and we feel as if we were in a measure actors with them in the scenes ['si:nz] which they describe.
----From Companionship of Books
书籍介绍我们与最优秀的人为伍，使我们置身于历代伟人巨匠之间，如闻其声，如观其行，如见其人，同他们情感交融，悲喜与共，感同身受。我们觉得自己仿佛在作者所描绘的舞台上和他们一起粉墨登场。
