“Save your soul, acquire print books (Sonnet 2434) I once wrote, save trees, buy ebooks; since then a couple of things have come to light. You can lose access to the ebooks you purchase, anytime the platform decides to remove them. However, the most heinous case of all is that, it's only a matter of time that platforms quietly start altering existing literature, like they are already doing to streaming. Nature will endure the loss of a few trees in the sacred cause of mind expansion, but no amount of energy conservation can make up for doctored consciousness. The minor dent on nature for literature is nothing compared to the species level damage that looms, once existing literature starts getting doctored by crooks. Ebooks, audiobooks, the choice is yours, but always acquire print copies of your cherished books.”

“It is only through the possession of an ever-illuminating library that we can come to recognize and understand the horror and wonder of the human family's Odyssey and its quest for wholeness, freedom, salvation, love, and dominion over fire, flood, suffering, and every disease and death—from the river Styx to space. Without reading as an essential resource for survival in our everyday experience, the individual . . . swings in the orchard of time, an empty-headed scarecrow—gleeful in his wilderness.”
