Ha! Favorite books, eh? Don't be silly, books can't be "favorite"; girlfriends and automobiles are favorites, they can be used over and over again until their familiarity blends into the backdrop of everyday existence and you become accustomed to their...uh...face.
Books are different. You read them and you learn...or you don't learn. The learning, you see, is all that books contain.
So the question, better put, is...What books have brought new information into your life that otherwise would have left you dull?
Today I am not dull because I have read...
The Open and Closed Mind.
The Pleasure and Pain Principal.
The King James Bible.
The Song of Zarathustra.
And most of the works of Plato, John Lee Hooker, and John Sturart Mills, and Kant and Zen.
And Wittgenstein.
And today, I am widely known as an alpha man because of it.
