I always disapprove of this sort of literary chauvinism as a matter of principle - GEB is a good book, but hardly necessary to the development of the human organism.
Eh, it's pretty clear that it was only intended to be a hyperbolically strong recommendation of a book. No need to interpret it literally. (Still, despite that, and despite its status as one of my favourite books, I agree that it doesn't really fit as a "rationality quote".)
