It’s the same with books, you see mounds of them in bookshops and you want to read them all, or at least to have a taste of them. You think you could be missing out on something important, you see them and they intrigue you, they tempt you, they tell you how insignificant your life is and how tremendous it could be.
From Andrés Neuman – Traveller of the Century
Too true!
Oh yes! I feel this all the more strongly about the books I own but never get around to reading…
How true – and how hard to resist!
