Comte De Monte Cristo

Here rests the thoughts of an immortal, making of what the world hath thrown at him.

"My dear count," cried Morcerf, "you are at fault--you, one of the most formidable logicians I know--and you must see it clearly proved that instead of being an egotist, you are a philanthropist. Ah, you call yourself Oriental, a Levantine, Maltese, Indian, Chinese; your family name is Monte Cristo; Sinbad the Sailor is your baptismal appellation, and yet the first day you set foot in Paris you instinctively display the greatest virtue, or rather the chief defect, of us eccentric Parisians,--that is, you assume the vices you have not, and conceal the virtues you possess."

Books to buy this coming break.

Newly arrived books! Three wonderful Wordsworth classics.

Homer's Illiad
Homer's Oddesey
Virgil's Aneied

All unabridged versions, which I dont intend to read. You see, sometimes I buy books that I read a few pages and thats it. I dont intend to read it again. Future books to purchase include.

Thomas Hobbe's Leviathan or political philosophies and such
Confucius analects (the smaller hardcover version)
Taoist classic - Tao Te Ching

They are going to cost MUCH more than those 3 wordsworth classics in fact, those three wordsworth classics put together is actually about 3/5 of the price of a normal book I will buy(philosophy) from any respected bookstore. Going to stamp them with my seal and they will be up for borrowing.
