Akhil Sharma Zitate – Sprüche auf Englisch mit Übersetzung

Zitat des Tages von Akhil Sharma:

I had written a book. For various reasons, the publishing industry had decided that my book was going to be 'important.' The novel had taken me 12-and-a-half years to write, and after being with the book for so long, I had no real perspective on the merits or demerits of what I had written. I hoped it was good, but feared that it wasn't.

When you read Chekhov, everything has an even gray tone. When you read 'Family Life', everything has an even white tone. It is almost like when you paint on paper, and you can see the paper through the paint.

I don't really revise. I tend to rewrite.

It's easy when you grow up in fear to act out of fear. I don't want to embrace that fear; I prefer to be kind.

Akhil Sharma

'Family Life' is a blueprint of my life. It was horrible and physically gruesome in a way the book doesn't attempt to capture. It was emotionally very bleak.

Akhil Sharma

I am shamelessly biased about the people in my life, and it makes sense to me that other people are the same.

Akhil Sharma

We are all human beings, immigrant or non-immigrant. We all feel fear. We all love and become confused when we don't act as well as we would like to. We all get depressed and have feelings of uselessness. All of these things are true and have always been true.

Akhil Sharma

I think one can be more honest in fiction than in a memoir.

Akhil Sharma

My wife is the most wonderful woman in the world, and my parents are the most extraordinary father and mother.

Akhil Sharma

Writing about what happened to my brother and to my family was awful. It was hard to look back at how much suffering there was and at how certain bad situations were made worse by our decisions.

Akhil Sharma

My parents are deeply pious Hindus.
