"Since we do--to some degree-- arrange our libraries so that our friends will see our books as we want them to be seen, an easy way to clear them out is to decide which books we'd prefer to, shall we say, hide or banish altogether, so that our friends won't see them at all. We can throw large numbers of books away just so no one will know you ever took such nonsense seriously."
-- Orhan Pamuk, Other Colors, 108.
