But this tomfoolery, having passed through a very expensive machine, is somehow enobled and no one dares criticise it. To err is to human, but to really foul things up requires a computer. Books most of all resemble us in their precarious hold on life. The proper study of mankind is books. Few books today are forgivable.
Books are a load of crap.
We all know that books burn - yet we have the greater knowledge that books cannot be killed by fire. People die, but books never die.
