Be bored and see where it takes you, because the imagination's dusty wilderness is worth crossing if you want to sculpt your soul.

So I'm itching to buy some books on my kindle right now. Do you have any suggestions? (I already have Giant of the Senate!)
You should definitely get Tributes and Trash Talk: What Our Presidents Said About Each Other if you don’t have it yet. It’s a great book even though the author is a first-class jackass.
Here are five books that I suggest (I’ll keep it limited to five and to books about Presidents, otherwise I’ll never finish answering this question):
•The Gatekeepers: How the White House Chiefs of Staff Define Every Presidency (BOOK | KINDLE) by Chris Whipple
•The Presidents’ War: Six American Presidents and the Civil War That Divided Them (BOOK | KINDLE) by Chris DeRose•Fraternity: A Journey in Search of Five Presidents (BOOK | KINDLE) by Bob Greene
•The Presidents Club: Inside the World’s Most Exclusive Fraternity (BOOK | KINDLE) by Nancy Gibbs and Michael Duffy
•What It Takes: The Way to the White House (BOOK | KINDLE) by Richard Ben Cramer – This is, without a doubt, the best book ever written about a Presidential campaign and it’s like 1,100-pages-long, so it’s probably more comfortable to read it on the Kindle.
Have you read The President's Club? If yes, do you think the authors would update/add a new chapter to include Donald Trump?
Yes, I have read The Presidents Club: Inside the World’s Most Exclusive Fraternity (BOOK | KINDLE). It’s one of my favorites – I know that I say that about everything, but it would definitely be in my Top 10 if we’re talking about books about Presidents. If Nancy Gibbs and Michael Duffy published an updated edition (and I hope they do someday), they would almost certainly add President Trump. It would be pretty interesting, too, since the book is about the relationships between Presidents and their living predecessors. We’re not even 100 days into the Trump Administration and they’d have plenty to go with already.
Pour a liquid out of its container, and it changes shape, fills the space you give it. If you give children a lot of space, it may surprise you where they'll go and the shape they'll take.

Virtues, like viruses, have their seasons of contagion. When catastrophe strikes, generosity spikes like a fever. Courage spreads in the face of tyranny.
