"No book is really worth reading at the age of ten which is not equally -and often far more- worth reading at the age of fifty and beyond." -C.S. Lewis
I absolutely agree with this quote and feel that it can be applied to movies, too. Reading is amazing. It gives you the opportunity to explore new worlds and imagine what you think the characters look like. I feel the best books are the ones below my reading level. The ones that are backed with adventure and excitement. There are so many books out there. There are ones with powerful impacts. Ones with romances and ones that take you to a whole new world.
Now about the quote being applied to movies. My favorite movies are Disney movies like Tangled, Despicable Me, and The Lion King. Disney movies allow us to express our inner child. Why do movies have to be inappropriate? What do we have to have ratings above PG? Movies that can be enjoyed as a kid are the most amazing movies when you are older.
Movies and books allow us to be human. They allow us to discover and learn. So express you inner child and read a fun book or watch one of your favorite childhood movies.
I love reading also. It takes up so much of my time but I don't care
ReplyDeleteSometimes I get so hung up on reading a good book that I don't do my homework. It's one of my flaws. A agree with everything you said. And I like your background. And I stole your quote: "Movies and books allow us to be human. They allow us to discover and learn."
