Nicolae Steinhardt and his father
I like Nicolae STEINHARDT a lot:
Nicolae STEINHARDT – the Orthodox Christian that means the most to me – Get a result now!

Why should you read by a plan, by design, and not random?
There are three ways in which you can read: Pleasure – „I like Science Fiction, I read SF books”; Random – „I’ll read everything; can I take it? OK, I’ll read it then”; Design – „In the next years, I’ll focus on reading only titles based on this criterion: …”; I like the latter one best; it lacks creativity, it may shape you into something you don’t want to become, but I consider it better than the two previous ones; I don’t think you can become good at something by chance; solution? Pick a criteria and stick to it. PS, 2018.08.03: Idea via Andrei Pleșu.
