Diary of a Mad Monk

Given my greatly varied assortment of books and the fact that I have read all of them, most more than once, I am of the opinion that what one reads is not nearly so important as what one learns from the act of reading.

As was shown at a recent bookswap that I attended, there is no reason to be ashamed or proud of anything on one's bookshelves. It is simply a matter of what you get out of that material.
