“All good books are alike in that they are truer than if they had really happened and after you are finished reading one you will feel that all that happened to you and afterwards it all belongs to you: the good and the bad, the ecstasy, the remorse and the sorrow, the people and the places and how the weather was.”
Tales of the Marvelous 
Oh dear I need this framed and on my wall. Or at least printed and stuck on my bulletin board.
It was on my wall for a month–part of a calendar. 🙂
I like the quote…thanks.

The run-on is half the fun. 🙂 So VERY Hemingway.
