The real reason books are dangerous is because people care so much about them.

I think books only have as much power as we are wont to give them. People forget that it is our own very selves that give books power and that we have the choice to put them down or not to read them (although why they would do that is beyond me) or to choose what to do with the story and information we have just absorbed.
It is so funny how important it is to have free will and yet how hard we work to take it away from one another.

Well, in the case of books, labeling them dangerous and attempting to prevent people from reading them. In some cases, banning books. When we do that, we take away choice from others.
