Thanks. I'll check into it.

Yes, life goes on. "This, too, must pass" is my motto for when things get tough. But I'll check out those books as well. I try to always keep at least one of the classics in my currently reading list. (At the moment, it's Essays, Civil and Moral & The New Atlantis by Francis Bacon from Vol. III of The Harvard Classics.)
