“I could spend the rest of my life reading, just satisfying my curiosity.”
The Autobiography of Malcolm X (1965)
Context: I told the Englishman that my alma mater was books, a good library. Every time I catch a plane, I have with me a book that I want to read—and that’s a lot of books these days.

The Letters of Samuel Beckett 1929–1940 (2009), p. 362

as quoted by John Horgan, The End of Science: Facing the Limits of Knowledge in the Twilight of the Scientific Age (1996)
“i wondered if i would spend the rest of my life inventing complicated ways to depress myself..”
