Bookes wot i ‘ave readed
A friend of mine once suggested that I write a book espousing my philosophy. I told him that my philosophy was simply to learn from those who are smarter and wiser than myself. Such people are easy to find; something Emerson knew a long time ago when he said, “Every man I meet is my superior in some way. In that, I learn from him.” I have found much wisdom in many books but these few below represent some of the best:
