I have bought a considerable number of books that I have only read partly, skimmed, or not at all. It really took off after reading about Umberto Eco's anti library philosophy; the most important books in your personal library are the books you have not read.
- mehdix 3y agoIt was a good reminder. > People don’t walk around with anti-résumés telling you what they have not studied or experienced (it’s the job of their competitors to do that), but it would be nice if they did. I can resonate with this one. Over the years I have learned that things a person NOT do, is more important compared to what they do. Thanks for sharing.
