I forgot to thank the original poster of this thread. Thank you for starting a wonderful thread.

This is an old quote from my quote journal. Judging by the time period it's either from a literature textbook or an historical romance novel.

Thank you JLukeW for starting us off on this inspiring journey of handwritten quotes some time ago. I hope that a fountain pen is still in your company and inking your days.

What a nice Neruda quote.

Your well-spaced handwriting is a joy to see.

Thank you for posting that.

Another stunning ink you've shown.

Diamine Matador is such a rich color.

This is the first that I've ever heard of it.

You have excellent taste in colors.

Thank you for posting this.

Tom K~ Thank you for those kind words. Royal Blue-- Loved your quote! (I confess to getting help translating it... now I have only to figure out what LOTR means : - )

 

Here's another Neruda, with a Pilot Custom 74 (M nib) and an unknown Pilot ink--probably Pilot/Namiki Blue, on Clairefontaine Triomphe paper~

So sorry, LOTR stands for Lord of the Rings. Actually it rhymes so it goes in the poetry thread, apologies.

Fred

Do not go gentle into that good night, Old age should burn and rave at close of day;

Rage, rage against the dying of the light.

Though wise men at their end know dark is right, Because their words had forked no lightning they

Do not go gentle into that good night.

Good men, the last wave by, crying how bright Their frail deeds might have danced in a green bay,

Rage, rage against the dying of the light.

Wild men who caught and sang the sun in flight, And learn, too late, they grieved it on its way,

Do not go gentle into that good night.

Grave men, near death, who see with blinding sight Blind eyes could blaze like meteors and be gay,

Rage, rage against the dying of the light.

And you, my father, there on the sad height, Curse, bless, me now with your fierce tears, I pray.

Do not go gentle into that good night.

Rage, rage against the dying of the light.

I don't usually listen to English-spoken rap because most of it flies above my head, too quick and mumbled for me to follow, but this song at the end of the movie "Bright" was pretty easy.

Pen: Wing Sung 3008 with Lamy Z50 F nib.

Ink: Pelikan 4001 Royal Blue with a drop of J. Herbin 1670 Rouge Hematite in the breather hole. (many thanks to Lgsoltek who suggested this trick!)

Paper: Local.

That is cool!

I thought so too, I'll do more experiments with this strange trick for sure!

++ Yes, thanks for doing this cool demo of Lgsoltek's trick! (Also loved your Diamine Midnight ink on the previous quote... Will have to add that one to my list!)

      Oh to have that translucent pink Prera! @migo984 has the Oeste series named after birds. There is a pink one, so I’m assuming Este is the same pen as Oeste.    Excellent haul. I have some Uniball One P pens. Do you like to use them? I like them enough, but don’t use them too much yet.    Do you or your wife use Travelers Notebooks? Seeing you were at Kyoto, I thought of them as there is a store there.

      It's not nearly so thick that I feel it comprises my fine-grained control, the way I feel about the Cross Peerless 125 or some of the high-end TACCIA Urushi pens with cigar-shaped bodies and 18K gold nibs. Why would you expect me or anyone else to make explicit mention of it, if it isn't a travesty or such a disappointment that an owner of the pen would want to bring it to the attention of his/her peers so that they could “learn from his/her mistake” without paying the price?

      Why nobody says that the section of Tuzu besides triangular shape is quite thick. Honestly it’s the thickest one among my many pens, other thick I own is Noodler’s Ahab. Because of that fat section I feel more control and my handwriting has improved. I can’t say it’s comfortable or uncomfortable, but needs a moment to accommodate. It’s funny because my school years are long over. Besides this pen had horrible F nib. Tines were perfectly aligned but it was so scratchy on left stroke that collecte

      Awesome! I'm in the process of preparing my bag for our pen meet this weekend and I literally have none of the items you mention!! I'll see if I can find one or two!

      @asota -- Yeah, I think I have a few rolls in my fridge that are probably 20-30 years old at this point (don't remember now if they are B&W or color film) and don't even really know where to get the film processed, once the drive through kiosks went away....  I just did a quick Google search and (in theory) there was a place the next town over from me -- but got a 404 error message when I tried to click on the link....  Ruth Morrisson aka inkstainedruth
