mercedo's Journal: Read a Book

Read a book. ...Everybody admits its importance. But I have to add a conditional sentence. ..when you are young.

To read a book is not as important as to be able to form your idea. If you can form your idea well, you'd better not read a book excessively.

When you are young, depends on individuals. In my case I finished reading what we call 'classics' till age 23.

If you intend to write a book now, you'd better not read someone's book beforehand. It takes sometime to digest someone's idea and make themselves embraced. If our books are just a copy of someone else's, it's not worthy of reading it. If we could achieve 'revolutionary' and 'novel' idea on your own, the means could not be questioned.
