朱熹 · 训学斋规
读书有三到
余尝谓读书有三到,谓心到,眼到,口到。心不在此,则眼不看仔细,心眼既不专一,却只漫浪诵读,决不能记,记亦不能久也。三到之中,心到最急。心既到矣,眼口岂不到乎?

子曰:「学而不思则罔,思而不学则殆。」
子曰:「温故而知新,可以为师矣。」

Of Studies
Studies serve for delight, for ornament, and for ability. … Read not to contradict and confute; nor to believe and take for granted; nor to find talk and discourse; but to weigh and consider. Some books are to be tasted, others to be swallowed, and some few to be chewed and digested.
Reading maketh a full man; conference a ready man; and writing an exact man.
