    ^and J. Campbell's work has lots of cool pictures, at least the series I would skip lunch in HS to read did.
    One of the most impactful things I've ever read is a chapter: "The Grand Inquisitor" F. Dostoyevsky. I own a pocket version.
    Fond of the Classics, Romantics (Emerson).
    The Truth about the Truth- Postmodern World, Anderson (collection of authors)
    And always happy to hear people's personal philosophies- that's always fun.

    I've read the Prince as well, currently studying it. The 48 laws of power was based off on that..
