The Bible

Recommended by 2 people on the record.

The bar next to each date shows how long ago it was said: 7d is days, 4yr is years.

Tyler Cowen recommends it
I am not myself religious, but usually I’ll tell my non-religious friends they ought to go read the Bible. It’s a wonderfully deep and brilliant book and most non-religious people, even most religious people, barely know it, or Shakespeare.

Kevin Kelly recommends it
I think it’s very hard to read the Bible all the way through. By the way, I recommend that you do that at least once in your life.

That little bar

It says how long ago something was said, so you can tell last month from 2014 without doing the arithmetic. Full and green is recent; it drains and cools as the date gets older, and empties completely at about 6 years.

A striped bar means the date itself is an estimate — the source did not carry an exact one. An entry with no date at all gets no bar.
