数日前、読売新聞サイトでいつも読んでいた「人生案内」が有料になってしまった。何で？残念。

I
could count on my fingers the number of books that I have not read from cover
to cover. On the other hand there are few books that I have read twice. I know
very well that there are many of which I cannot get the full value on a single
reading, but in that they have given me all I was capable of getting at the
time, and this though I may forget their details, remains a permanent
enrichment. I know people who read the same book over and over again. It can only
be that they read with their eyes and not with their sensibility. (p. 89, The
Summing Up, W. Somerset Maugham)
