Umberto Eco Quote

Für die Leute, die einen zum ersten Mal besuchen, eine imposante Bibliothek entdecken und nichts Besseres zu sagen wissen als: Haben Sie das alles gelesen?, kenne ich mehrere Antworten. Einer meiner Freunde sagt; „Mehr, Monsieur, mehr.Ich für mein Teil habe zwei Antworten. Die erste ist: Nein. Das sind nur die Bücher, die ich nächste Woche lesen muss. Die, die ich schon gelesen habe, sind in der Universität. Die zweite Antwort lautet: Ich hab keins dieser Bücher gelesen. Warum würde ich sie sonst hier aufbewahren?
