    This is so true and it is very true for authors, as well. When you write stories, it's like you embody those characters and you become this different personality to really lay it down in writing. It's like living vicariously through the various characters that you create. It's awesome to hear him express the reason why he loves to read. That is what every writer wants their reader to feel like.

    • @earth2saka

Having to put the book down and go to work feels like dragging me from where I really want to be (not literally ofc, I prefer to not be stranded on an island.) it’s a shame the book only has like 200 pages, it’s going to be over soon.

    To be the frontier brick layer of human progress.

    And it would be even more interesting if I could KNOW that at that point, if I ever reach it, I am the ultimate.

    I started reading Nietzsche and Jung when I was 12 to 14 years old, despite not understanding much of what I was reading they tore me apart. Later, after a few PhDs they both put me back together again. Then, I went back to Dostoevsky, he just kicked me in the balls and punched me until I no longer had any teeth left. That is the way I always liked it.
    Reading from the best is just like entering the ring with Mike Tyson in his prime. First, you get KO, then you start learning not to get KO until the third round, then the fourth, and so on. However, you always know you are eventually going to get KO, LOL. And that is the beauty of exploring the mental universe of great minds. One day...

    Tolstoy copied War and Peace 6 times over course of 7 years I believe. All by hand, now that is a feat

    If the books stores sold weren't shi* and were actually masterpieces. I'd be able to read a whole more.

    Roland from dark tower series is such a character. He's selfish. Yet loves his friends after a time. Yet still seems to only care for that tower. That and I love jack reacher and how he plays chess with everyone. For me reading is the best form of escape. Too bad most people I know think it's boring

    At 72 I get "how do you know that?" Or "where did you get that idea?" After Reading a Book a week, who knows which book gave me information to formulate new ideas.

    Reading is simply the "learning from other people's mistakes" saying from billionaires. But being wise requires experience. So, read the books and apply it and if doesn't work at least you'll know that it doesn't and you'll know what works.
