Read

Hamed Owais, "Dr Mostafa Sweif" (1961).

Read, read, read. Read till your eyes swim; get yourselves right, hold meetings, keep on holding them. To aim high and far is not the problem, for that is not what distinguishes those who accomplish. It is the planning, the organisation, the attention to detail, the tenacity that count. 

— C.L.R. James (1956) 

You gotta study the Qu'ran, Torah, Bhagavad Gita The Bible, Five Baskets of Buddha Zen

And when you've read them shits, read them shits again! But watch what you're repeatin

If you don't know the history of the author You don't know what you're reading!

— KRS-One (1992)
