Quote by Friedrich Nietzsche

Early in the morning, at break of day, in all the freshness and dawn of one's strength, to read a book --I call that vicious!

Early in the morning, at break of day, in all the freshness

Summary

The quote suggests that reading a book early in the morning is considered a vice or a negative habit. The author implies that the start of the day should be dedicated to productive activities or physical exertion, rather than spent on indulging in literature. It implies a belief that reading should be relegated to leisure time or pursued in moderation, rather than as an immediate priority upon waking. The quote might reflect the perspective that engaging in physical activity and productivity outweigh the value of intellectual pursuits in the early hours of the day.
