23. 5 things I learnt from Steal Like An Artist
Sometime back, I wrote a review of <a href="https://amandeepmittal.wordpress.com/2014/07/18/book-review-steal-like-an-artist-by-austin-kleon/" target="_blank"><strong>Steal Like an Artist</strong></a><strong> by Austin Kleon</strong>. There wasn’t much to write about the book in the review that could satisfy my fascination towards it. Many things had been said by many people on creativity and getting ideas, before <a href="http://www.austinkleon.com/" target="_blank"><strong>Kleon </strong></a>came out with his manifesto. Being a writer and an artist he is a keen observer and a participant of the creative economy in this age of digitization. So I believe being a part of creative economy himself, Kleon’s manifesto is a better outcome of his wisdom. Thus, I decided, why not post the top five things from the book that I learnt and I tend to implement in my daily ritual.

31. How to Remember What You Read with Readwise
“What an astonishing thing a book is. It's a flat object made from a tree with flexible parts on which are imprinted lots of funny dark squiggles. But one glance at it and you're inside the mind of another person, maybe somebody dead for thousands of years. Across the millennia, an author is speaking clearly and silently inside your head, directly to you. Writing is perhaps the greatest of human inventions, binding together people who never knew each other, citizens of distant epochs. Books break the shackles of time. A book is proof that humans are capable of working magic."
—Carl Sagan
