“To Study and Learn How To Know Ourselves…Is the Foundation of Wisdom and the Highway To Whatever Is Good.”

Charron

“The most excellent and divine counsel, the best and most profitable advertisement of all others, but the least practiced, is to study and learn how to know ourselves. This is the foundation of wisdom and the highway to whatever is good.”
–Pierre Charron

* As a person who reads every possible minute that I can, I’m always looking for good reading recommendations and for places to read about, and revel in, books (whatever physical form they may take). I loved finding this blog, Nathalie Foy — “on books about books.”

* In a book group? Considering reading The Happiness Project? Email me at grubin at gretchenrubin dot com if you’d like a one-page discussion guide. If you’re reading it with your church group, your spirituality reading group, or the like, you can request a guide that focuses on the spiritual aspect of the book. Or request both!
