书籍给我们日常生活轨迹中播种的快乐是珍贵无价的。在书籍中，我们仿佛与那些最高贵的灵魂并肩而行，穿越那崇高迷人的幽域。

Precious and priceless are the blessings which the books scatter around our daily paths. We walk in imagination with the noblest spirits, through the most solemn and charming regions.

我知道，这听上去太傲慢了——分配我的时间给特定的人群，如果其中有一些珍贵和无价的资源。

I know, this sounds very arrogant — allotting my time out to specific groups of people as if it were some precious and priceless resource.

youdao

Because if we recognize that there are things in the world which have intrinsic value and importance and what we call beauty.

因为如果我们承认世界上有这么,我们称为“美“的东西，其本质上就无价且珍贵。
