Sobre mim"In order to read what is good one must make it a condition never to read what is bad; for life is short, and both time and strength limited." (Schopenhauer)

Currently reading:



"To a greater or lesser degree every man is suspended upon narratives, on novels, which reveal to him the multiplicity of life. Only these narratives, often read in a trance, situate him before his fate." (Bataille)

Recently read:

Sobre a minha biblioteca"A bibliophile of little means is likely to suffer often. Books don't slip from his hands but fly past him through the air, high as birds, high as prices." (Neruda)

"When I get a little money, I buy books; and if any is left I buy food and clothes." (Erasmus)



“The book borrower of real stature whom we envisage here proves himself to be an inveterate collector of books not so much by the fervor with which he guards his borrowed treasures and by the deaf ear which he turns to all reminders from the everyday world of legality as by his failure to read these books." (Walter Benjamin)
