Have read little and understood less.

When we read too fast or too slowly, we understand nothing.

Is this a book exhausted from too much reading? Or too little reading?

If you don't feel that you haven't read enough, you haven't read enough.

I know too much and not enough

The person who reads too much and uses his brain too little will fall into lazy habits of thinking..

While we pay lip service to the virtues of reading, the truth is that there is still in our culture something that suspects those who read too much, whatever reading too much means, of being lazy, aimless dreamers, people who need to grow up and come outside to where real life is, who think themselves superior in their separateness.

Much learning does not teach understanding.

Reading, after a certain age, diverts the mind too much from its creative pursuits. Any man who reads too much and uses his own brain too little falls into lazy habits of thinking.

One sign you haven't done enough reading is if you find yourself agreeing with whatever book you read last. At first, it's easy to be swayed by any reasonable argument. Once you've read a lot, you can see that even the best arguments have limitations.

Too many facts are often as much of an obstacle to understanding as too few. There is a sense in which we moderns are inundated with facts to the detriment of understanding.

We live in an age that reads too much to be wise, and that thinks too much to be beautiful.

People calculate too much and think too little.

You should study more to understand that you know little.
