Alice Oswald Zitate

People are so used to reading novels now, they just read a poem straight through to get the meaning. And that's something totally different from the slow way you read something if it's a tune; which to me a poem has to be.

Alice Oswald

Deutsche Übersetzung

Die Leute sind so daran gewöhnt, Romane zu lesen, sie lesen einfach ein Gedicht durch, um die Bedeutung zu erfahren. Und das ist etwas ganz anderes als die langsame Art, wie man etwas liest, wenn es eine Melodie ist. was für mich ein Gedicht sein muss.

It's really nice meeting people after a concert. Still, it's very weird to be at the center of a group of 30 people all listening to what you're saying. When that group turns into 300 people, it goes on from weird. Some people revel in it, and I don't.
