"Le véritable trésor d'une bibliothèque n'est pas les livres"

Walter Benjamin

Simplified Meaning:

A library's true value comes from more than just having a lot of books. It's about the knowledge and learning found inside them. Imagine a library as a treasure chest; the shiny gold isn't the real prize—it's the wisdom and ideas you get from reading the books. For example, think of a person who reads a book about cooking. They learn new recipes and cooking techniques that they can use to make better meals at home. This learning can bring happiness and skills that they didn't have before. So, the best thing about a library is how it helps people learn and grow, not just having many books on the shelves. Going to the library can change how you see the world and improve your life in many ways.
