I love that quotation...I feel like I've heard it before. Is there a chance I have or am i just imagining things?

[cannedtomatos]

well it's from a room with a view. but it does have a hard scent of familiarity, doesn't it? it smacks of crime and punishment. (or was that hunger?)

i just loved the comparison of moods and keys of music.

hmm, well I probably haven't heard it before. What it reminds of in syntax is like Jane Austen...the tone is a little more descriptive novel. I'm thinking the old man and the Sea, but i know that's wrong. Anyway it made my day.

i can pretty much guarantee i'll never quote Hemingway.
