To prove it either way, one should be able to divide the person to see what are the differences in both branches of development. Say, I may not say I'm better person for reading Tolkien, for I do not know what would have come out of me if I haven't - I have only one 'me' to judge, the one who've read it, and I am what I am, if you follow my meaning, kind sirs and ladies.
I may feel I am, but that's subjective. Though I do feel I am.

I like to imagine that I would be a poor bankrupt romantic fool without having read Tolkien (and Lewis), instead of the enriched romantic fool that I am.

Great quote, oh Bard. But note the wording -
lmp 'likes to imagine' but he does not know for sure.
Same with yours truly
