To Top of page I have always imagined that Paradise will be a kind of library. Robert Byrne, 1988. If past history was all there was to the game, the richest people would be librarians. I learned 3 important things in college to use a library, to memorize quickly and visually, to drop asleep any time given a horizontal surface and 15 minutes. What I could not learn was to think creatively on schedule.
Life is a library owned by an author.
It has a few books which he wrote himself, but most of them were written for him. Keith Mohler, 1994. Libraries are reservoirs of strength, grace and wit, reminders of order, calm and continuity, lakes of mental energy, neither warm nor cold, light nor dark. The pleasure they give is steady, unorgastic, reliable, deep and long-lasting. After that, if I still had more money that I couldn't use, I would hire a professor and get some text books.
