Notes taken from reading How To Read a Book by Mortimer Adler.

"Knowledge is not as much a prerequisite to understanding as is commonly supposed. We don't have to know everything about something in order to understand it; too many facts are often as much of an obstacle to understanding as too few. There is a sense in which we moderns are inundated with facts to the detriment of our understanding." - p.4

"Reading is a complex activity that consists of several acts, all of which must be performed to be 'good reading'."

Levels of Reading

This is gist. 
There are many like it, but this one is mine. 
It is my life. 
I must master it as I must master my life. 
Without me gist is useless. 
Without gist, I am useless.
