'Tis the good reader that makes the good book;
in every book he finds passages
which seem confidences
or asides
hidden from all else
and unmistakably meant for his ear;
the profit of books
is according to the sensibility of the reader;
the profoundest thought or passion
sleeps as in a mine,
until it is discovered by an equal mind and heart.
