Andrei Codrescu Zitate auf Englisch

Zitat des Tages von Andrei Codrescu:

Andrei Codrescu

Even the greatest poets can't express tragedy in a way that is larger than their immediate circumstances.

Andrei Codrescu

Most artists don't get paid for what they do, and they are lucky if they can persuade a friend to let them show something at a kid's birthday party.
