Outside of school, I haven't voluntarily read a book in about three or so years. Not because reading is stupid or for nerds or anything, but because it's extremely hard for me to read a book and pay attention to the words on the page. They usually come to my eye and then don't register as actual language, I kind of just scan through the text without processing much.
“The man who does not read has no advantage over the man who cannot read.”
Telling KoopaDaQuick that she isn't smart is like telling an amputee that they're missing some limbs.
