Quote of the Day

I have always imagined that paradise will be a kind of library.
---Jorge Luis Borges


I have a T-shirt with this quote. It speaks to me on a deep level. :-)

Ah, I love Borges! I have a collection of his short fiction and The Book of Imaginary Beings.

My terrible confession: I know him only through occasional quotations. I already have my classic literature reading project for next summer (Don Quixote), but if I tackle Borges the year after that, where would you recommend I start?

"The Aleph" is a short story of his that I remember enjoying, and I liked "The Book of Imaginary Beings."
