看一个人读什么书一般就可知道他是一个什么样的人,就像看一个人同什么人交往就可以知道他的为人一样;世人有以人为友的,也有以书为友的;无论是以书为友抑或以人为友,都应择其善者而从之。 Looking at what a person reads, he generally knows what kind of person he is. It is like looking at a person’s association with someone and he can know that he is a man. People in the world have a friendship with others and a book as a friend. If a book is a friend or a person is a friend, they should all choose their own good.
