"本を買うことは時間も買えれば良いことだろう"

Arthur Schopenhauer

Simplified Meaning:

Sometimes people buy lots of books, even if they don't have the time to read them all. Imagine you bought a shelf full of great books. You think they will make you smarter, but they just sit there because you are too busy to open them. This situation is a bit like getting a gym membership but never actually going to work out. The books and the membership are only useful if you make time for them. Balancing your schedule could help. For instance, instead of watching TV for an hour, use that time to read a chapter. This habit might be hard at first, but if you do it often, it becomes easier. The key is to not just surround yourself with things that can benefit you, like books, but to also find moments in your daily life to use and enjoy them.
