Quote by Chanakya

Books are as useful to a stupid person as a mirror is useful to a blind person.

Books are as useful to a stupid person as a mirror is useful

Summary

This quote underscores the idea that books, like mirrors, can only be of value if they are accessed and understood properly. For a person lacking intellectual capacity, books may offer little to no benefit, just as a mirror holds no purpose for someone unable to see. The quote emphasizes the importance of aptitude and receptiveness when it comes to seeking knowledge from books, as their usefulness relies on the reader's ability to comprehend and internalize the information they contain.
