Is there really any point in reading the entire thing or should I just get an abridged version?

Have you read it in its entirety? If so, how long did it take you?

It can be cut up into anecdotes, as it's basically a collection of them, and the final two books are not as good as the proceeding ones.

Honestly though there's just so much good writing scattered throughout that you'd be sorry there isn't more.

idea behind creating the longest writing about the most simple thing is stupid to me. it's supposed to be the case that how reality is so complex and vast that we cannot ever understand it.

women in particular seem to be fans of this urge because it belittles ability of human brain to capture an abstract notion or physical object in totality.

the masculine urge, the rational urge is to make it brief.
