Umberto Eco, qui possédait 50 000 livres, disait ceci à propos des bibliothèques personnelles :
"Il est insensé de penser qu'il faut lire tous les livres qu'on achète, tout comme il est insensé de critiquer ceux qui achètent plus de livres qu'ils ne pourront jamais en lire. Ce serait comme dire qu'il faut utiliser tous les couverts ou les lunettes, les tournevis ou les forets que vous avez achetés avant d'en acheter de nouveaux.
Il y a des choses dans la vie pour lesquelles nous avons besoin de toujours avoir suffisamment de provisions, même si nous n'en utilisons qu'une petite partie.
Si, par exemple, nous considérons les livres comme des médicaments, nous comprenons qu'il est bon d'en avoir plusieurs à la maison plutôt que quelques-uns : quand on veut se sentir mieux, alors on va au « placard à pharmacie » et on choisit un livre. un livre aléatoire, mais le bon livre pour le moment. C'est pourquoi vous devriez toujours avoir un choix nutritionnel !
Ceux qui n'achètent qu'un seul livre, ne lisent que celui-là et s'en débarrassent ensuite. Ils appliquent simplement la mentalité de consommateur aux livres, c'est-à-dire qu'ils les considèrent comme un produit de consommation, un bien. Ceux qui aiment les livres savent qu'un livre est tout sauf une marchandise."

Independent artists: imagine waking up to this. Spotify flags “artificial streaming” with no source details. @CDBaby says it can happen without your consent, removes the release, passes the fine to YOU. How do you defend yourself against evidence you can’t see? @spotifyartists

The haunting sound that Roman soldiers would have heard from their Celtic enemies before battle came from the Carnyx, an ancient wind instrument used between 200 BC and 200 AD.

On the Greek island of Syros, animal lovers can live for free in exchange for caring for the island’s many stray cats.
The nonprofit organization Syros Cats runs a popular volunteer program that offers free accommodation, utilities, and sometimes meals. In return, volunteers help care for the island’s estimated 3,000 stray cats by feeding them, cleaning shelters, socializing the animals, and assisting with sterilization and veterinary care.
Volunteers typically stay in a shared house near the Aegean Sea, with private bedrooms, and commit several hours a day to cat care. The rest of their time is free to explore the charming capital of Ermoupoli, beautiful beaches, and picturesque villages.
This unique program has become a dream opportunity for cat enthusiasts around the world, allowing them to enjoy authentic Greek island life while making a real difference for the local feline population.

Just wild sown 200 hundred acorns
Picked up in local paths where there was no chance of a future, & placed in areas where they have every chance
Within every acorn there is a potential forest

Today marks the anniversary of the debut of The Prisoner, which premiered on this day in 1967. I have delved deep into this series, immersing myself in its world by even journeying to the picturesque Portmeirion. This thought-provoking show has truly captured my imagination.

'Arrival', the first episode of The Prisoner, debuted in the UK on this day in 1967 in selected ITV regions.

On September 2, 1973, J.R.R. Tolkien entered death’s long night. Yet the man who gave us eucatastrophe—that sudden turn from despair to joy—knew his story wasn’t over. For him, every such turn pointed beyond Middle-earth to Christ’s empty tomb and the sure hope of resurrection. Today we remember him with that same hope, waiting for the day when he, and all who trust in Christ, rise into unending joy.
