I agree with Ray on this one. Though I find I go back and forth between the two

But New also sort of promises that there might be something that you have never seen/read anywhere. It depends I guess if its a creative field I will choose new but if its a hard science then classics are always good at first principles teaching(In book's example context, could be generalized).

Picking Nuggets
New is overvalued relative to great. For example, when choosing which movie to watch or what book to read, are you drawn to proven classics or the newest big thing? In my opinion, it is smarter to choose the great over the new.
