They way I read you, you are in complete agreement with S. -- That essay expounds thinking for oneself over "much reading". That, or you're trolling. The line you incorrectly quoted is: "It may sometimes happen that a tr

A part of me welcomes this. I am sick of the noise. Browsing the Amazon (Kindle) bookstore, I wish that 90% of the junk didn't even appear in my search results. Rather read works by people who are creating for the sake of art, and not
