Said from on high, by the Washington Post's Michael Dirda.
From the story...
8. Expand the horizons of your friends and family. In college my girlfriend gave me a copy of T.S. Eliot's collected poems. Till then, I had thought of Eliot as dauntingly academic and just about impenetrable. But owning the book led me to read around in it, and before long I was memorizing long passages and looking for Eliot's Selected Essays. The gift changed my life.
