Wielding a copy of Finnegans Wake or The Odyssey in its authentic Greek is far more empowering and suave.

I doubt any proof exists which would convince you, but I'd point you to the sarcastic text associated with his recommendation that you buy a book.

I read The Stranger because a crustpunk left his copy on the chair in front of me on the greyhound. I saw him leave it and was curious to read it so didn't bother to alert him to his loss.
