There is nothing like reading for hours in an isolated place, with no company but a lazy pet and a mug of coffee. And then you realize that hours went by, and you're still there, curious about what's gonna happen to the main character, the feeling is undescribable. (And even better is when your parents brag about your reading habits, "oh my daughter reads like 40 books/year!" haha)
Speaking about parents, they should teach their children this hunger for books, this passion when getting an unread book and wondering what it's about. There is nothing worst than hearing from someone that "the movie is better" because they weren't taught about how greater literature is, overcoming the Seventh Art. I haven't watched a single movie that was better than the book, no matter what actors were in it, or who's the director. You should be the director of the movie, and when you read, that's what you become.
So, people, teach your children this passion. I can assure you: they'll speak better, read better, think outside the box, and stand up to their beliefs, which will be different from what the master of brain-washing, the tv, wants them to believe.
Well, not only tv wants people brain-washed, politicians support it too. When people receives better education, they can think for themselves and make changes, for instance, not voting for corrupt politicians. Remember, Robespierre was a reader who became the leader of one of the most important revolutions of all time (don't know what revolution was that? Read about it!).
