I would rather have a nod from an American, than a snuff-box from an emperor. - Lord Byron

Gosh Termie. I didnt know you were such a romantic.



I most certainly am. Just don't see much reason to pull out that part of my personality around here...

Yikes! Just got a mental of mental image of Termie in a frilly shirt, sipping Absinthe, quoting Lord Byron or commiserating on The Sorrows of Young Werther[X(]

Misunderstandings and neglect occasion more mischief in the world than even malice and wickedness. - Goethe, The Sorrows of Young Werther.

Really? Why?

T mentioned that he could be a romantic. I immediately thought of the Romantic movement that came about as a reaction to the Age of Reason. Great literature. Yet, if you notice, many of the Romantic authors wore frilly shirts, although oddly enough Mary Shelley did not.[:)]
None-the-less the mental image of our oft terse Dane lamenting his station as poor Young Werther did or perhaps giving impassioned orations exhorting people to live to the fullest as Don Juan does seemed different than the persona we've met. T does display a broad knowledge of music lyrics, even showtunes[:)] yet I picture him more in a postmodern vein. Remarque or Robert Graves with their disdain for the old ways and pragmatic observations of the human condition. I even goes so far as to say that T's impatience with knuckleheads and brusque prose may put him more in the company of Joseph Heller or Kurt Vonnegut rather than Goethe, Byron or Ludwig Achim von Arnim.

I hope that answers your question Onime.

T, if I have misread you based on the superficial contact that we share on these forums than I pray I have not offended. The fact you were able to pick out a couple quotes suggests that you have at least a passing familiarity with those authors[;)]
