Hello Freya,

Great! You've found the quote. I knew I had heard the quote before but I wasn't able to find it and didn't have time to search more.

Thanks a lot.

Strange... Have you checked the box in your profile where you can instruct the website to send you a message when someone posts under your translation? Or maybe your email program thought it was spam...

Anyhow, never mind for this one
