Love of Books Gone Too Far?

[monk222]

I have a spasm of envy for the person that was killed by a falling bookcase, as long as it doesn't happen prematurely... It would be a good way to go. You went when you were in a good frame of mind and you were doing something pleasant and interesting. A lot of people would say, 'I would rather have a heart attack at the height of sexual passion.' On the whole, I would prefer to be killed by a bookcase.

-- Tom Stoppard, playwright

Umm, I think I would stick with that painless death-in-your-sleep thing, but this is definitely more witty, and most worthy of a devoted book lover. I would just hope that it isn't the porn section.
