It's kind of funny because I learn about Islam through lectures and various books, but I have no urge to read Quran or learn Arabic. How does one develop this urge?

What is the objective you have to first ask yourself that. If objective is being met then dont be so concerned about developing this urge, you might lose sight of objective. Tilawat of Quran however should be part of a Muslims daily routine, even if it is just 5 minutes of Quran recitation per day.

But lets say a person is a total illiterate and never learns to read Quran, however, from asking questions to Ulama and following on their advices, listening to religious lectures, he lives his 24/7 according to the commandments of the Quran and in accordance to the Sunnah - what would you say about such a person?
