I love books 📚 But no, I don’t read all day Just one hour per day. Usually in the evening. You can read a lot of books over the course of a lifetime at just one hour per day. Consistency.

I have a “no cell phone” policy in my college classroom (also no laptops) Students groan for the first week. At the end of the semester they always comment that they like the policy. Gives them the opportunity to disconnect for an hour and just focus No phones is a relief

You don’t have to be pretentious about it We all know the book is better Just enjoy the movie for what it is No need to compare

Wake up and get it done ✅ 💪

“ The truth is that the State is a conspiracy designed not only to exploit, but above all to corrupt its citizens" Leo Tolstoy

War and Peace *Theres a section in the back 1/2 where Tolstoy just rants about how insane war is and how we need to stop doing it

This is what you’re hit with when you walk through my front door. A small offering Several years ago, a friend got me Volume 2 and 3 of Arabian Nights. I’ve been on the hunt for Volume 1 ever since

Well said Joshua, same here

Start collecting these for your future children

FYI: If you post your bookshelves, I’m zooming in on the titles and judging you.

“My brother's death: wise, good, serious, he fell ill while still a young man, suffered for more than a year, and died painfully, not understanding why he had lived and still less why he had to die.” Tolstoy
