and I forgot to say Ezekiel, John, Proverbs, some minor prophets, well just a lot of scattered verses here and there, have made me cry. Also, a lot of psalms that are sung.

Any book that has something remotely sad or otherwise emotionally moving will make me cry. There aren't many good books that haven't made me cry. Even bad books often make me cry.

>the goodwill is good, not through its serviceability for the attainment of an intended end, but only through its willing, i.e. good in itself, and considered for itself, without comparison. it is to be estimated far higher than anything that could be brought about by it in favor of any inclination, or indeed, if you prefer, the sum of all inclinations. even if through the peculiar disfavor of fate, or through the meager endowment of step-motherly nature, this will were entirely lacking in resources to carry out its aim, if with its greatest effort nothing was to be accomplished by it, and only the goodwill were left over: then it would shine all by itself like a jewel, as something that has its full worth in itself. utility or fruitlessness can neither add nor subtract from this worth.
This passage. I think it is such a beautiful sentiment.

Hold on. Just because it has "novel" in the name doesn't make it literature. With that attitude soon you'll be saying that "novelty songs", "novel ideas" and "light novels" are books.

Crying just means you have too much estrogen.
Be a fucking man for once in your miserable lives.

They're anime scripts. If you start calling them books, you'll start a slippery slope and soon you'll be calling manga literature. At that point, the whole literary medium will dissolve, like with visual arts. People will start bringing in urinals and canned poop into bookstores.

How is it an "anime script"? It's not an anime, it's not animated. It's text that you read. The original version did not even have voice acting.

You're really good at playing the straight man. But I have to say that sadly I've run out of material at this point, so instead of a punchline, we'll have to settle for breaking the fourth wall. Have a nice day.

More words =/= better

Going over 250 pages is a very common trait of shit writers.
