I read alot of books when younger.

Those five books are they only ones you need though.

[Metabolic]

The Republic
Phenomenology of Spirit
Beyond Good and Evil
Les Particules élémentaires
The Lord of The Rings (whole saga, if not possible, the trilogy) on second thought, Ulises by Joyce.


Also "the complete works" of Gayspeare is cheating.

fuck the bible

There's no need to get apprehensive and insult the Holy Book.  If you don't like it, keep it yourself, but insulting ones religion or the book from which they derive their ideas is primitive, and conduct unbecoming a gentleman. In addition, I'd appreciate if this thread stay on peoples list and not this, because we all know the power religion does to threads.

I edited my quote because you're right, it was disrespectful (also, you asked nicely). However, just by including the book on your list you will spark a huge debate anyway.

In spanish its written with an "i" so pardon me, Chomsky.

Don't know if Ulysses is worth all that much. I went to an exhibition in London a few years ago. They had first editions of the book, taken from Joyce's relatives. You could see most of the book was in pristine condition, only a few pages were turned, his relatives just didn't give a fuck.

[dr.chimps]

Superb choice, Brother Nails.

[Jadeveon Clowney]

ulysses is a decent book - worth reading for the three months in your life during which you think you're an intellectual.

also, spanish scholar, why the fuck would you leave a spanish edition for posterity when half of joyce's cleverness works only in english?

[Nails]

Superb choice, Brother Nails.

thank you Dr Chimp!

i would also throw in this Master Piece of a painting i saw at the New York Museum the painting is about 8feet tall 6 feet wide

You are dense as a fucking rock.  I didn't intend to leave the spanish edition, I posted without proof-reading and didn't notice that I posted the first thing that came to mind (the spanish title without translating).
