Knowledge is power. The pen is mightier then the sword. I know I know… Both of those quotes are over used and thrown around like dribble these days but the truth to them is astounding. One can learn from watching a film on the subject or even doing it hands on, but that only takes you so far.
Reading opens a road to endless knowledge. Anything from the French art of cane fighting called “Savate”, to today’s politics, all the way to ancient civilizations of our world. I am sure that no one wants to put themselves in a
situation where they are among people who are talking about subjects, ideas and issues that are completely oblivious to them… but by not reading, nor bothering to even glance at some writing, that is exactly what is going to happen. I am not saying that you should go out and read everything you can, but if one tries there is a very good chance that they are going to learn briefly on many subject commonly discussed, or something that relates to these topics. Now one would look smarter in a social group rather then the uneducated ass.
The only thing in life that someone cannot take away from you is your education… so get it, while the gettings good!
