Matt Haig Quotes

In One Such Shop I Saw Lots Of Books In The Window. I Was Reminded That Humans Have To Read Books. They Actually Need To Sit Down And Look At Each Word Consecutively. And That Takes Time. Lots Of Time. A Human Can't Just Swallow Every Book Going, Can't Chew Different Tomes Simultaneously, Or Gulp Down Near-infinite Knowledge In A Matter Of Seconds. They Can't Just Pop A Word-capsule In Their Mouth Like We Can. Imagine! Being Not Only Mortal But Also Forced To Take Some Of That Precious And Limited Time And Read. No Wonder They Were A Species Of Primitives. By The Time They Had Read Enough Books To Actually Reach A State Of Knowledge Where They Can Do Anything With It They Are Dead.
