“I don't trust books. They're all fact, no heart.”

Stephen Colbert

Simplified Meaning:

Books often provide a lot of information and facts, but they might not always touch your emotions or show deep feelings. Imagine reading a textbook for school. It has lots of useful knowledge, but it might feel boring or hard to connect with. On the other hand, talking to a friend or watching a heartfelt movie can make you feel something inside. Think about how a simple story from a grandparent can teach you important lessons and fill you with warmth. This means that while books can be great for learning facts, they might not always give you the feeling and connection that real-life experiences can. To balance this, try mixing reading with personal experiences that speak to your heart, like helping others or spending time with loved ones.
