quote [ It hardly seems likely that the life of an obscure Anglican clergyman should recommend itself to the attention of a modern biographer; the shelves of second-hand bookshops are the sepulchers of many an Essex parson's dutifully compiled Life and Letters. But Sabine Baring-Gould happens to have been the last man who knew everything. ]

He sounds a bit like Isaac Asimov, who supposedly over 500 books (depending on who you ask and how you count).
See also, A.J. Jacobs book The Know-It-All wherein the author reads the entire Encyclopedia Britannica. |
