Please forgive me the pretentiousness of what I'm about to share, but this is so great:

"You complain that in your part of the world there is a scant supply of books. But it is quality, rather than quantity, that matters; a limited list of reading benefits; a varied assortment serves only for delight. He who would arrive at the appointed end must follow a single road and not wander through many ways. What you suggest is not travelling; it is mere tramping." - Seneca, Letters to Lucilius, #45

This is such a powerful idea to me, from about 2000 years ago, that reading everything is like drifting aimlessly never arriving anywhere; it's just so recognizable.
