Simplified Meaning:

When someone spends too much time reading books, they might start acting differently because of the ideas they get from those books. Imagine a person who reads all the time and talks about what they read non-stop. This person might seem a bit strange to others because they think more about stories than real-life events happening around them. For example, think about a student who reads many fantasy novels. They might start believing in magic or trying to live like the characters in those books, which can be confusing for people who do not share the same interests. While reading is great for learning and imagination, it’s important to balance it with other parts of life. If someone reads too much and forgets to interact with real people or do everyday things, they might seem odd or out of touch. The advice here is to enjoy reading but not let it take over your whole life.
