My opinions on Steve Jobs can best be described by the exorcism kit I am bringing out now I saw his name.


Anyway... there is always time to spare to read a few book here and there. And to the true lover of books, if there isn't time then you need to make time.

Once again, you might be surprised what some people value as priorities. And how much of the time spent doing $whatever could be re-prioritized if one so desired.
It really is all about priorities.

It is usually understood that "reader" == "someone who reads books for pleasure".


And there you go -- your priorities. Even in this fast-moving world just cut the cord and read a book. Assuming you want to, which not everyone is required to. But you see that it isn't really a question of "free time".
