Ecclesiastes 12:9-12

9Not only was the Teacher wise, but he also taught the people knowledge; he pondered, searched out, and arranged many proverbs. 10The Teacher searched to find delightful sayings and to record accurate words of truth.1

11The words of the wise are like goads, and the anthologies of the masters are like firmly embedded nails driven by a single Shepherd.2 12And by these, my son, be further warned: There is no end to the making of many books, and much study wearies the body.
