"A classic is something that everybody wants to have read and nobody wants to read." Mark Twain said that, and my favourite radio program is going to do a christmas series on ten of those. The TV/radio guide runs an extremely easy quiz, which opening sentence is from which of those ten books. Go for it, send in the answers, you can win a book nobody wants to read! I'd give you the sentences, so you could figure it out without even knowing seven of the books we're talking about, but then I'd have to translate them into English, and I don't want to disfigure great literature.
