It is to books that I owe everything that is good in me.
我身上所有的优点都应归功于书籍。
Gorky said: "It is to books that I owe everything that is good in me." He acquired rich knowledge and became a great writer by reading much. We may not be a great writer by reading, but we can be a learned person. 高尔基说过:“我身上所有的优点都应该归功于书籍。”他通过多读书获得了丰富的知识,并且成为了一名伟大的作家。也许我们读很多书也成不了伟大的作家,但我们可以成为一个博学的人。
