I donŐt know about China, but I remember reading somewhere that the first
person in the Western world who read silently was Julius Caesar, who was
observed reading a letter that way. It was taken as a mark of his genius.
=====
If poetry comes not as naturally as leaves to a
tree it had better not come at all.
-- Keats
