Read Don Quixote by Cervantes, The Iliad, Maybe some philosophy, Socrates, Plato, Kant, Nietzsche. Sci fi can be pretty thought provoking, Asimov is good, Heinlan is good. William S. Burroughs is interesting.

I personally like Ayn Rand. Also, Ernest Hemingway and F. Scott Fitzgerald. Good literature. No fantasy.

John Steinbeck would be a good author of choice. I admire him even though i'm not American.
