"When reading a book like this, always keep a dictionary by your side because a book written by someone who's a polymath has indeed an extensive form of vocabulary that they tend to utilize a lot of intricate words that will just have your head throbbing because wow it's bat-shit hard to understand it and a lot more time is spent figuring out the words than actually reading it. Jfc, I'm sorry for being an illiterate." — Jul 22, 2013 12:01PM

“Vade Mecum
I want the scissors to be sharp
and the table perfectly level
when you cut me out of my life
and paste me in that book you always carry.”
