One day in early 2018, I was sitting at my office desk thinking about revising the name of my website, I had a strong desire to share some of the wisdom I had learned over the years, but I wasn't sure what to call it. Someone popped into my office with a question, and after I answered they thanked me and told me telling me that they appreciated my 'geek wisdom'. So I thought, that sounds like a cool website name, I wonder if anyone has that domain. I looked up geekwisdom.org and did some google searches and came across this book. A book of geeky quotes and deeper meanings, kind of which I thought of it myself. A really good read!

Review of 'Geek Wisdom: The Sacred Teachings of Nerd Culture' on 'Goodreads'

4 stars

A nice compendium about the Geekdom and its "holy books/movies/actors/scientists/whatever". This book acts as a wisdom companion, giving teaching issued from our most beloved movies or books about several topics including : self acceptance, living in society, accepting the others, the universe, the futur (and everything). It's a nice read and it reminds us that you can find wisdom in many many places, after all : All that is gold does not glitter.
