Quotation of the Day for February 22, 2010I like my fiction with a chaser of beer Real short words and a vision that's clear I don't want no Wilde, no Thomas Hardy Don't want no Roth or Dumas at my party No Saul Bellow, no F. Scott Fitzgerald No Graham Greene or no Lewis Carroll Hemingway, he's the one I read Real straight shooter gives me what I need Hemingway, always gets it right With a simple syntax and a prose that's tight - Paul Quarrington and Martin Worthy, of the band Porkbelly Futures, from their song Hemingway. Quarrington, a novelist as well as a musician, died of lung cancer on January 21, 2010. [http://porkbellys.com] Submitted by: Terry Labach Jan. 28, 2010 |
