Would Like to Learn How to Play the Violin, Need Some Tips?

So I’m 19, and completely new to the world of classical music. Nevertheless, I’d like to learn to play the violin. What I need is: learn how to read notes, buy a violin, and learn to play it (of course).
But I’m afraid that I’m just too old and ignorant to learn to play.

1) Is it ok to buy a really cheap (low quality) violin just to learn how to play and then buy a better one once I’ve gotten better?
2) Is it a problem that I can’t read notes yet? Will they teach me at whatever school I go to? Or can I “homeschool” myself?

How Do I Go by Getting Started With Playing the Violin?

I am 22 and I’ve always wanted to play the violin. I have been playing the guitar for several years now (so I know a few things about music) but I have never even touched or picked up a violin in my life. I am looking for a good, affordable beginner’s violin that is geared more towards classical music rather than fiddle music. I noticed that there are several different sizes as well. I have smaller-than-average hands with slim fingers. Should I get a smaller size? should I take violin lessons? is it possible at
all to be self-taught with the violin?
