    I’m ashamed, ashamed, ashamed… Buying books, piling up books, and reading books are my personal hobby, but I know full well that buying a lot of books, or even reading a lot of books, and even writing a lot of articles, doesn’t amount to much. In fact, I don’t like the modern society’s preference for quantifiable things as a way of measuring a person’s mode of thought; as if if someone has a few more books at home, then he looks learned, and if someone writes a couple more articles, then he has ability? Professors and scholars all have to be judged this way. Maybe an addiction to buying books isn’t a good hobby after all. Unfortunately, I’ve already gotten unable to quit… But having more books can always be beneficial. There’s still a long road ahead before I can truly make these books my capital and turn them into an advantage that belongs to me.。。
