It is really unfortunate that people nowadays don't read the literature/classics (or books for the most part) unless and until they see/hear a movie (mostly bad) made from it. Nothing forces you to engage your imagination like a well written book. There are more insights and life advice buried in the "classic novels" than in shelves full of "Self Help" books most of which have only a single theme/idea fluffed up into hundreds of (useless) pages.
