It’s the last tease of November, I’ll meet you at the station..

Today’s treble-T is “Top Ten Books Set in _________”. I haven’t thought of a topic yet, so I’ll edit this later. And now, the Tuesday tease!

If we let ourselves, we shall always be waiting for some distraction or other to end before we can really get down to our work. The only people who achieve much are those who want knowledge so badly that they seek it while the conditions are still unfavourable. Favourable conditions never come.

The Weight of Glory, C.S. Lewis

“Bart associated his responsible bill paying with having good credit, made possible by his regular income from the landfill. Yet his habit of financing large purchases, such as family vacations, simultaneously made his earned income, whether ‘twenty thousand…or a hundred and fifty thousand’ somewhat irrelevant. The more he paid off his debts, the more his credit allowed him the opportunity to spend however he liked, leaving him at risk of over-extending his family’s finances.”
