Colm Toibin Zitate

I write with a sort of grim determination to deal with things that are hidden and difficult, and this means, I think, that pleasure is out of the question. I would associate this with narcissism anyway, and I would disapprove of it.

Deutsche Übersetzung

Ich schreibe mit einer Art grimmiger Entschlossenheit, mit Dingen umzugehen, die verborgen und schwierig sind, und dies bedeutet, denke ich, dass Vergnügen nicht in Frage kommt. Ich würde das sowieso mit Narzissmus in Verbindung bringen, und ich würde das ablehnen.

Esperanza Spalding

The single guiding principle that I try to follow, assuming blindly that the rest will fall into place, is to operate squarely in the present. I think it's one of the most difficult things for anyone to do.

Emily Weiss

Sometimes, his methods and his motives are questionable and even his morals are questionable in the way he does things. But I think his intention is always to protect his daughter.

Victor Garber

My first instinct when I write songs is not a negative one. It's something positive... Everything I've ever done has some form of hope in it, I think.

Evan Parker

The hardest thing I had to overcome in life? I think racism. That's so difficult because I don't think anyone can ever understand it. It's not that people don't want to understand it, but they don't want to touch it.
