I like reading generally including classics and there's some nice ebooks of some of then at standard ebooks.

But the real shortcut to a classical education is to learn absolutely anything that is so esoteric that normal people don't learn or get taught it, and then act as if it's mystically powerful and makes you special for no clearly defined reason. A dead language is a good one.

You've fallen for this trap and will find that there's no there, there, other than some cool books.
