Darin Strauss Zitate

Memoirs are - memory is - rarely 100 percent accurate. Any autobiography is a construct, ballpark, even unnatural. Private diaries, too, can be unreliable - a detail that matters only if the diary is read.

Deutsche Übersetzung

Memoiren sind - Speicher ist - selten zu 100 Prozent genau. Jede Autobiografie ist ein Konstrukt, ein Spielplatz, sogar unnatürlich. Auch private Tagebücher können unzuverlässig sein - ein Detail, das nur von Bedeutung ist, wenn das Tagebuch gelesen wird.

A good autobiography is like a document: a mirror of the age on which people can 'depend.' In a novel, by contrast, it's not the facts that matter, but precisely what you add to the facts.

Imre Kertesz

I very much dislike writing about myself or my work, and when pressed for autobiographical material can only give a bare chronological outline which contains no pertinent facts.

Shirley Jackson

So too, in forming a constitution, or in enacting rules of procedure, or making canons, the people do not merely passively assent, but actively cooperate. They have, in all these matters, the same authority as the clergy.

Charles Hodge

I realized going back and writing and explaining in details the difficulties I had lived actually became emotional again. It's like therapy but sometimes therapy can be painful. But it's part of life and part of the autobiography so I'll have to finish it sooner or later.

Jenni Rivera
