Quote by G. C. (Georg Christoph) Lichtenb
There are very many people who read simply to prevent themselves from thinking.
Summary
This quote suggests that some individuals choose to engage in reading not to stimulate their own thinking or reflect on ideas presented in the text but rather as a means of avoiding deep thought. These readers may seek refuge in books to escape the challenges of critical thinking, analysis, or introspection. Instead of actively engaging with the content and deriving meaningful insights, they use reading as a passive distraction. This quote highlights the tendency for some to use literature as a way to evade intellectual effort rather than embrace it.
