It's okay to not have read everything!

If you hang around smart people enough, it becomes clear that it's dumb to lie about which books you've read.

There are millions of books out there and you can be a smart person whilst not having read a page of Tolstoy or Kafka. I'd recommend both authors; but, you can be a deeply intelligent and thoughtful person without having read them.

I've read both of them; but, I haven't read a single book by Charlotte Brontë. I've read Emma Goldman thoroughly; but, I've only read a few short stories by Nathaniel Hawthorne.

I could fill the Galaxy with what I haven't read.

So could you.

It's nothing to be ashamed about.
