"作家の時間のほとんどは、書くために読むことに費やされる。一冊の本を作るために、男は図書館の半分をひっくり返すだろう。"

Simplified meaning
Writing a book involves a lot more than just putting words on paper. Writers spend many hours reading so they can gather ideas and learn about their subject. Imagine a baker wanting to create a special cake; first, they taste many different kinds of cakes to understand flavors, textures, and what people like. In the same way, a writer explores many books and sources to gather inspiration and knowledge. This helps them create something unique and well-informed. For anyone writing, this shows the importance of preparation and research. Good writing doesn’t come from nowhere; it requires learning and understanding what others have written before.
