True, but books are also valuable for the subtle ways in which they change you, not just for what you remember.

You can say the same about movies and documentaries. Why is a book any different?
Yes, books have the power to change you but like anything you have to put in the time to study it and put it into practice. Reading a ton of them and hoping they will change you by osmosis does nothing more than keep your mind busy.
