问题      There is nothing illogical or synthetic about the humility of great bookmen in calling attention to the limitations of the book. No book can【1】us to know everything that is to be known, or feel everything that is to be felt. A book is part of life, not a substitute【2】it. It is not a fit【3】for worship or enshrinement.

No one would have been more【4】than Aristotle if he could have known of the excessive and【5】veneration that would be given to his ideas in centuries to【6】When his works became the last words of advance knowledge, such knowledge became neither advanced nor vital.

In the effort to increase book reading some extravagant things are being said about books. It is made to【9】that nothing is happening now that has not happened before, and that the only true approach to understanding is【10】books. We do neither service nor justice to books by【11】upon them such omnipotence and omniscience. Many of the answers we need today are not necessarily to be found between【12】. There are elements of newness in the present【13】of man that will not readily be【14】of by required reading or ready reference. Books are not slide rules or blueprints for【15】automatic answers. What is needed is a mighty blend of the wisdom of the ages with fresh, razor-edged analytical thought.
