Churchill was the Prime Minster of England during the period of Second World War leading English people to fight against Hitler of Germany. Finally he won the war and became a hero in English history.
His English standard was very high and in his speech, he frequently used literally words to encourage his people to fight. He was a politician, but he received prize of Nobel in Literature field.
The following words were said by him to us for the good in our life. He said: “It is a good thing for an uneducated man to read books of quotation.”
It is true that most of us do not have opportunity to get high education and thus we have been rated as uneducated people. However it is, we can still have chance to learn knowledge and wisdom from quotations of great person.
If we can spend our time to study deeply from the books of quotations which are indeed the experience of great people, we are surely to become a learned person even the wisdom and knowledge come late in our life.
Therefore, if you wish to have self-education, buy a book or books from book store, and you will then become a scholar of your own.
