Can it be said that a book changed your life if...?
...it fell off a shelf and hit you in the head, causing permanent brain damage? (Instead of you cracking the book it cracked you!) You never opened it, never read a word of it, and yet it had a profound influence on your life.
yes, if it were a heavy book and fell on someone's head, it is bound to change his life forever. it will impair him permanently. God forbid. It is such a tragedy, to have ur brain damaged.
