Ray Bradbury

Simplified Meaning:

Imagine someone throws away food instead of eating it. Wasting food is bad because it's valuable and many people are hungry. Similarly, burning books is like wasting food because books contain knowledge and stories. However, ignoring books and not reading them is even worse. Not reading books means you're missing out on all the ideas and lessons they offer. For example, if you have a book that teaches you how to be better at your job but you never read it, you miss a chance to improve. To apply this idea in your life, try to read more often to learn and grow, instead of letting books gather dust on the shelf.
