The original writer is not one who imitates nobody,
but one whom nobody can imitate.

i confess a terrible terrible terrible weakness for French writers ~ Chateaubriand is a bit before the period of writing i really enjoy, but certainly a influence to the writers i adore.

the romantics invented emo.

Their version of Emo was STURM und DRANG. Or perhaps our version of it is Emo :)
