"One can't prescribe books, even the best books,……" — Rudyard Kipling

"One can't prescribe books, even the best books, to people unless one knows a good deal about each individual person. If a man is keen on reading, I think he ought to open his mind to some older man who knows him and his life, and to take his advice in the matter, and above all, to discuss with him the first books that interest him."

— Rudyard Kipling
