Ancient Egyptian Literature: Volume I
Anthology of collected Egyptian text. I honestly really enjoy these? Fun to see parallels in other ancient near east stuff (which I read some of in 2024). And Egypt just always feels glamorous!

[From the Instruction of Ptahhotep]
Don’t be proud of your knowledge;
Consult the ignorant and the wise,
The limits of art are not reached;
No artist’s skills are perfect.
