This is pretty good. It happens every now and then that someone says, "I only have one book" (i.e. the Bible), or that they write more than they read, or worst of all that they choose not to read at all. And it makes my skin crawl. There's a real contempt for reading as if "books" are out to get you, or a complete lack of interest as if books are only for homework.

To be honest it's hard to believe Kanye West can be that good of a musician if his brain is so starved of ideas, but I'm prepared to believe people who say he's great. It wouldn't be the first time a musician has been a musical genius but a little bit thick otherwise.
