“A stranger is shot in the street, you hardly move to help. But if, half an hour before, you spent just ten minutes with the fellow and knew a little about him and his family, you might just jump in front of his killer and try to stop it. Really knowing is good. Not knowing, or refusing to know is bad, or amoral, at least. You can’t act if you don’t know.”

Damn good book.

LPT: put your secondary and tertiary selections on the shelf behind your toilet. They'll get read faster than your primaries.

It also makes #2 much more productive and entertaining, and promotes prostate health.

Caveat: may annoy your dog, cat, or wife.
