Augusten Burroughs Zitate

The secret to being a writer is that you have to write. It's not enough to think about writing or to study literature or plan a future life as an author. You really have to lock yourself away, alone, and get to work.

Deutsche Übersetzung

Das Geheimnis, ein Schriftsteller zu sein, ist, dass man schreiben muss. Es reicht nicht aus, über das Schreiben nachzudenken oder Literatur zu studieren oder ein zukünftiges Leben als Autor zu planen. Man muss sich wirklich einsam einsperren und sich an die Arbeit machen.

Life flies by, and it's easy to get lost in the blur. In adolescence, it's 'How do I fit in?' In your 20s, it's 'What do I want to do?' In your 30s, 'Is this what I'm meant to do?' I think the trick is living the questions. Not worrying so much about what's ahead but rather sitting in the grey area - being OK with where you are.
