Buying the book you are allowed to read it and remember it.

I have no idea what you're trying to claim regarding what you earlier wrote in reply to what I wrote. Do you think some claim of mine is incorrect, and if so then what are you basing your claim on?
(Copyright says nothing about your "thoughts (memory, ideas)", only about what you are prohibited from
doing (note:
doing, not
thinking or somesuch). It says, e.g., that you are not allowed to distribute copies you've created from a "copyrighted" text. Whether the copying is made partly using "thoughts (memory, ideas)" or not is irrelevant.)
