#1237: It's funny how my numbers end up all over the place...
From 'On the Reading of Old Books':
I believe that many who find that 'nothing happens' when they sit down, or kneel down, to a book of devotion, would fing that the heart sings unbidden while they are working their way through a tough bit of theology with a pipe in their teeth and a pencil in their hand.
Eyeuch! A pipe in their teeth? Well, as if that doesn't restrict the reading of theology to men! I would like to believe that this is quite an accidental implication, however.
I've been making a fair dint in my to-read list lately. Schmucks to assignments. I'll worry about them later ^_^
