Okay, Tony, I'll bite. What's the signature line quote from? Did you just finish the Great American Novel?

It's the passage that Robert Redford cites, while an aging Norman is fishing alone in the final scene in the movie. Pretty deep stuff.

I haven't read the book. But I don't see how it could be as good as The River Why by David James Duncan. But then, I'm not a fishing person, so I can't compare them to real life. Tangentially, The Brothers K by the same author is an incredible book. Fabulous baseball story. Almost enough to make me understand baseball.
