"The reasonable man adapts himself to the world; the unreasonable man persists in trying to adapt the world to him. In the wanderings of time, not every future is created and depends on unreasonable ideas. It is not enough to want and desire: one must focus and ask oneself: what are you going to do to change and conquer what you want from life?"

— Juan Francisco Palencia.

The photos really don't do this book justice. I don't normally go for Reader's Digest, but this book is just so pretty and in such good condition.

The stories themselves are of varying quality (the stories about people keeping wild animals as pets were particularly dated), but are on the whole pretty wholesome, and occasionally sad.

US newspaper advertisements from 1956 for Reader’s Digest featuring Julie Andrews who was riding high at the time on the smash success of My Fair Lady on Broadway. It was one of many advertising campaigns in the era that sought to capitalise on Julie’s newly minted stardom.

There’s an overlooked thrift in my area (location is woebegone) that has an unholy number of Reader’s Digest condensed books.

That one time that newgrounds fella (Rig) stopped a kid (sirtom) from burning down a school in the UK. (It’s even on the front page of the mag ffs “Countdown to school burning”)
