If you want to learn how to read, you must first be able to read slowly. After that, you have to read slowly, always slowly, until you reach the last precious book you will read. And the book should be read very slowly, even for pleasure, as when seeking learning or critiquing it.

Even if you do not try to write your own, you should always read the book slowly, asking yourself whether you understand the book well and whether the ideas obtained from the book were intended by the author, not just your own ideas.
