Churchill Quote - Got It!



As soon as I ask - I got it...
Though I like the version from my memory a bit more...

Churchill, Winston S., from  Painting As A Pastime' What shall I do with
all my books?' was the question; and the answer, 'Read them,' sobered
the questioner. But if you cannot read them, at any rate handle them
and, as it were, fondle them. Peer into them. Let them fall open where
they will. Read on from the first sentence that arrests the eye. Then
turn to another. Make a voyage of discovery, taking soundings of
uncharted seas. Set them back on their shelves with your own hands.
Arrange them on your own plan, so that if you do not know what is in
them, you at least know where
they are. If they cannot be your friends, let  them at any rate be your
acquaintances. If they cannot enter the circle of your life, do not deny
them at least a nod of recognition.
