brigdhBibliobibuli There are people who read too much, bibliobibuli. I know some who are constantly drunk on books, as other men are drunk on whiskey or religion. They wander through this most diverting and stimulating of worlds in a haze, seeing nothing and hearing nothing.
-H. L. Mencken's Notebook 71, 1956
Speaking of, I accidentally read Swordspoint again today (I wasn't going to start another novel until I finished a book I was reading for a class, but that didn't happen), and I could read a thousand thousand pages of Alec and Richard. Especially Alec. Oh, how I love bitter, self-destructive characters.
