Well, speak for yourself there, 'fobble.

Yes, the writing is in a formal style, with a somewhat oldfashioned air -- it could date to anywhere in the century between 1850 and 1950. The Chinese-epigram quality of certain phrasings I cannot assess. I tend to associate with persons who would not find these sentiments in any way extraordinary nor curious. Their view of them would be "Well, doesn't everyone?"
