I think a sign of an open or intelgent mind is a pile of books, all with bindings broke. I just put my books out in my dorm's suite room. Using a small coffee table there as a one level shelf. The books being bounded by the floor on the bottom and the bottom of the table top. There are a good number of books there. I brought some from hom in case I had time to read them, which I didn't and the rest are my text books. Both take up about equal space. And that isn't even half of the books in my entire collection. Most of my books are on a shelf at home and all the books I own are only a fraction of all the books i have read. I attribute reading alot when I was younger to alot of who I am and how I think. Of course people like my mom and my brother played a big part, but I think books were the factor that made me my own person...distint from anyone else around me. I was just thinking about puting my name in my books. I did in some of them, I was considering doing the rest, but then I thought, 1) I am lazy. 2) if someone takes, reads and gets something from one of the books I have, I don;t care if I never see it again...books are to be read, not sit on shelfs. Oh well...I can't talk too much...I have about 5 books that are on that shelf that I haven'r even read yet...not enough time. Or at least I spend way too much time bumming around. eh. It happens.
