Retard here, I read the quotes posted here of the funny hair dude with a long name. I like him. But am told he's too big to read and I should begin with pic-related instead. Just making sure it's true before I order a copy as it costs money. And I don't want to mess up and order something that's also too big to read, for a retard.

Just read Schopenhauer instead. Start with “Essays and Aphorisms” which is a good introduction to his work (and fairly easy to read and understand).

Buy a kindle. Not sure if they actually help your eyes as they say though.
