A big book is like a serious relationship; it requires a commitment. Not only that, but there's no guarantee that you will enjoy it, or that it will have a happy ending. Kind of like going out with a girl, having to spend time every day with her - with absolutely no guarantee of nailing her in the end. No thanks. Mick Foley

This quote shows that even if you do not like the person, you still have to go through with the relationship because you need to know if it is something that is right for you or not.
