What qualities do you think Scott finds most valuable in other? Why does he think they are valuable

Scott loves to read and wants to instill that love in others. His closest friends share little with him with regard to his love of learning but he doesn't recognize that as a reason they might not always be friends. The exception seems to be Patrick. Though he's not as smart as Scott, Patrick is more closely connected to Scott and shares more of his jokes than Kyle and Mitch. I think Scott values friendship, humor, and loyalty.
