<p>Like for example, if I carried around a copy of Ulysses, the Novum Organum, or The Divine Comedy with a bookmark somewhere in it, would it make me look as intelligent as having a monocle would?</p>
<p>Monocles > books. Sorry :)</p>
<p>Yes. You should carry The Republic by Plato, also, with a bookmark almost at the end. :)</p>
<p>Anything written in Latin, or Ancient Greek in addition to a monocle.</p>
<p>Just do both, and then you would look super intelligent…</p>
<p>I just walk around smoking a pipe…that usually gets the job done</p>
<p>Pipe, monocle, top hat: the ultimate trifecta.</p>
<p>Mein Kampf, in Deutsch.</p>
<p>I think we are just starting to describe Sherlock Holmes haha</p>
<p>Carry around some Voltaire</p>
<p>^^ That is because Sherlock Holmes is awesome and intellegent. Although I don’t know if he wore a monocle or not.</p>
<p>Just carry around a library while you’re at it. :)</p>
<p>^^Hmm, well he should have. It really would have completed his image</p>
<p>^ I concur</p>
<p>The Cat in the Hat.</p>
<p>any book with small print and many pages</p>
<p>Common Sense?</p>
<p>If you want to look intelligent and sophisticated, the New Yorker is the way to go.</p>
<p>^ I was reading the New Yorker in study hall once, and someone asked me if I was reading a comic book (by looking at its cover). Ouch.</p>
