Too many books!

[ljwrites]

An antilibrary is a powerful reminder of your limitations — the vast quantity of things you don’t know, half-know, or will one day realize you’re wrong about. By living with that reminder daily you can nudge yourself toward the kind of intellectual humility that improves decision-making and drives learning.

Why you should surround yourself with more books than you'll ever have time to read is a reassuring read, but nobody tell my husband. It's been a contention between us for years that he has far too many books (and so do I tbh), and I don't want to validate him.

You are an anomaly in the modern world. I've had to put a moratorium on my book-buying because I have so much unread stuff lmao.
