I ran across this video (Click on the Yahoo Link Below) about Jay Shafer, who has chosen to down-size his life to an 89-Square-Foot Home. Amazing, he compromises nothing in the way of style or sense of space and belonging, and yet has obtained a level of living with just the things he needs, the things that are important to him. I was very impressed, of course, with his bookshelves laden with books. I think I would be very content to choose to embrace a similar approach to life and materialism some day.
I also came across this amazing quote:
"When I get a little money, I buy books. And if there is any left over, I buy food."
Desiderius Erasmus
