I certainly agree that sitting in a room full of books you haven't read feels so great because of how humbling it is. I was once in the house of a very wealthy family (as a waiter), and their library was just so perfect it almost evoked a feeling of the sublime. I made detours on the way to the guests just to pass through the space. A recent move has me scared off accumulating though. It seems you pay for a book once, and then pay for it again in time, money, and effort every few times you move house.
