“It does not matter how many books you have, but how good the books are which you have.”

Lucius Annaeus Seneca

Simplified Meaning:

Having a lot of books isn’t as important as having good books. Imagine you own a hundred storybooks, but many are boring or not very useful. It’s better to have just a few books that teach valuable lessons, inspire you, or make you think deeply. For example, a businessperson might read hundreds of books on different topics, but only a few of those books really help them succeed. In life, focus on the quality of the things you have and not just the quantity. By choosing good books, or anything of quality, you make the best use of your time and learn more effectively.
