"Books represent different things to different people. For some they are light entertainment, for others a resource of knowledge and learning, and for others they are reminders of important moments or academic successes. However, when you buy a book, you do not suddenly own the wisdom it contains - all you have bought is words on paper. It's up to you to internalize whatever enlightenment the book has to offer. Without fully grasping this concept, it can be close to impossible to separate oneself from one's books."
