The Smartest People Have Many Books at Home But Only Read a Fraction
These unread books are not failures; they are potentialities. They symbolize an ongoing dialogue with the infinite, a recognition that knowledge is not a destination but a journey. As Umberto Eco’s concept of the “anti-library” suggests, our unread books constantly remind us of our ignorance and the vast expanse of what we have yet to learn. They whisper to us from their dusty shelves, challenging our complacency and urging us never to cease exploring.
Let those shelves groan under the weight of unread pages. They are the silent sentinels of your intellectual curiosity, the guardians of the vast unknown, waiting patiently for the day you’ll open their covers and step into another world.
