" To read too many books is harmful. "

Don't read too many books, don't talk to too many people, don't listen to too many interviews because humans are like sponge. They soak whatever they see in front of them. They soak ideologies, words, accents etc. So if you consume too much of a person's thought, you end up losing your own ideology after that. 

Did you know that some people who thought their kids were prodigious, kept their kids locked away. Isolated from the rest of the work thinking that if they didn't do so, their kids would be affected by mediocrity. 

Afcourse, no one needs to do that because it's good to talk to people and read books. But when you loose control over the quantity then that might as well robb you off your own identity.
