I keep an ongoing list of my fifty favorite books, which I recalibrate whenever I discover a new one that seems to demand a spot there.

I write out of gratitude for all the books I have loved over the years.

Although we will both die, and life is utterly meaningless, my time is vastly more important than yours.
