  No Room For George

  If you guys/gals would show a little initiative, you'd have found the quote already. Anyways, here it is, by Juan J. Orosa.

  “As books go, it is tiny, but it is immeasurably great in its essence. It can be carried in one’s pocket,but if it were found in a library of 90,000 different books, it would probably turn out to be the most important one of them all.”

  Dozy, I thoroughly enjoyed reading that post! It's Watch Tower Society sensationalism and self-commendation at its worst (somewhat reminiscent of the claims made of "miracle wheat" etc), but what I enjoyed more was your humourous take on it. You have a gift.

  Thank you, NoRoomForGeorge.... I looked up the "well-known writer in Mexico" and found this on Wiki.... the last sentence is quite "interesting"!

  Juan J. Orosa is a Mexican writer, born in México City in 1969. In 1987 he began studying physics at the National University (UNAM), but a year later changed to engineering; two years later he founded his own company. Dissatisfied, Juan decided to leave everything and move to the beach at Chicxulub, Yucatán , where he started his formal writing career.

  In 2003 he was awarded with Ramón Zorrilla medal for his short story "Inconsolable". In 2002 he finished his first novel, Los extraviados (ISBN 9685679002), and in 2004 the second Succubus (ISBN 9685679274), both published by Sexto Piso. His works are thrillers that show a sense of irony that evokes Stanislaw Lem and Boris Vian.

  I think that's the only possible explanation for why Juan Orosa said what he did. Either that or he'd had one too many tequilas.
