I don't look down on these people. I dislike them.
And my view on books is that it's open. There are no constraints, so I don't see my viewpoint as narrow. A book is what you make of it.
I grew up on books and nothing else. No TV, no Radio. I read books at random, without a system, and I judge them by if I like them or not. And not by if others tell me I should like them or not.
Humility is not really something that can be explained easily, but when you finally become humble about the books you read, you will know it.
- swombat 18y agoAre you disputing that it is possible to learn from (fiction) books? Or are you disputing that some books do that better than others? Or are you just disputing that some people have a preference for books which teach them interesting things as well as entertain them? Or perhaps you're just accepting that all those concepts exist, but you simply find that learning from books is of no import to you? I'm not quite sure what your argument is.
