Chinua Achebe Zitate

Many writers can't make a living. So to be able to teach how to write is valuable to them. But I don't really know about its value to the student. I don't mean it's useless. But I wouldn't have wanted anyone to teach me how to write.

Deutsche Übersetzung

Viele Schriftsteller können nicht ihren Lebensunterhalt verdienen. In der Lage zu sein, das Schreiben zu lehren, ist für sie wertvoll. Aber ich weiß nicht wirklich, welchen Wert es für den Schüler hat. Ich meine nicht, dass es nutzlos ist. Aber ich hätte nicht gewollt, dass mir jemand das Schreiben beibringt.
