"El libro es un oráculo y un testigo"
— Pablo Neruda

Simplified Meaning:
Books can act like wise guides and reliable sources of information. For example, if you read a history book about World War II, it can teach you about the important events and decisions made during that time. The book becomes your teacher, sharing knowledge with you that might not be common sense or easy to find elsewhere. Additionally, books can confirm things that happened in the past, serving as proof and keeping those events from being forgotten. Imagine talking to a grandparent about their childhood; their stories help you understand what life was like back then, just like books do for many topics. By reading, you can learn countless things and verify the truth about past events, which can help you make informed decisions today.
