"I rejoice greatly that I find there is patience in my soul for quite a long time yet, that I desire no earthly possessions, and need nothing but books, the possibility of writing, and of being daily for a few hours alone."
- Fyodor Dostoevsky in Letters of Fyodor Dostoevsky (trans. Ethel Colburn Mayne)
Ohh, is that all?
