Englisches Zitat von Alexander McCall Smith als Bild

It seems to me that we're in danger of losing sight of certain basic civic values in society by allowing the growth of a whole generation of people who really have no sense of attachment to society.

Alexander McCall Smith

Deutsche Übersetzung

Es scheint mir, dass wir Gefahr laufen, bestimmte grundlegende bürgerliche Werte in der Gesellschaft aus den Augen zu verlieren, indem wir das Wachstum einer ganzen Generation von Menschen zulassen, die wirklich kein Gefühl der Bindung an die Gesellschaft haben.

Englisches Zitat von Fannie Flagg als Bild

I think that people that are not sensitive, who seem to bang through life, do survive, but I don't think they get the really soaring feelings that people who are more artistically bent can get.

Englisches Zitat von Sharan Burrow als Bild

The muse holds no appointments. You can never call on it. I don't understand people who get up at 9 o'clock in the morning, put on the coffee and sit down to write.

Englisches Zitat von Fran Lebowitz als Bild

I place a high moral value on the way people behave. I find it repellent to have a lot, and to behave with anything other than courtesy in the old sense of the word - politeness of the heart, a gentleness of the spirit.

I suppose when they reach a certain age some men are afraid to grow up. It seems the older the men get, the younger their new wives get.
