"L'art de lire est de sauter judicieusement"

Alexander Hamilton

Simplified Meaning:

When you read something, it's important to know what parts to skip. Not every word or sentence is always important. Imagine you are reading a long book about gardening. If you already know how to plant seeds, you don't need to read that chapter closely; you can just skim it. By skipping parts you already understand or parts that don't matter much, you save time and focus on what's new or useful to you. This skill helps you learn faster and stay interested. Practice this by looking for main ideas and key points, and don't get stuck on every single detail.
