Summary
This quote suggests that a valuable book should be able to stand on its own, without relying on external explanations or interpretations. According to this perspective, a book should be clear and comprehensible enough to convey its intended message without further guidance. The quote implies that if a book fails to achieve this self-explanatory quality, it may not be worth investing one's time in reading it as it might lack depth or clarity. Ultimately, it emphasizes the importance of a book's ability to effectively communicate its ideas and engage readers without requiring additional clarification.
