About my librarySuffice it to quote the answer which Anatole France gave to a philistine who admired his library and then finished with the standard question, "And have you read all these books, Monsieur France?" "Not one-tenth of them. I don't suppose you use your Sèvres china every day?"
-Walter Benjamin
