Zitat des Tages von Edna O'Brien:
The vote means nothing to women. We should be armed.
I have some women friends but I prefer men. Don't trust women. There is a built-in competition between women.
Countries are either mothers or fathers, and engender the emotional bristle secretly reserved for either sire.
Recollection is not something that I can summon up, it simply comes and I am the servant of it.
I am obsessive, also I am industrious. Besides, the time when you are most alive and most aware is in childhood and one is trying to recapture that heightened awareness.
In every question and every remark tossed back and forth between lovers who have not played out the last fugue, there is one question and it is this: 'Is there someone new?'
Writing is like carrying a fetus.
Writers really live in the mind and in hotels of the soul.
