Gabrielle Zevin Zitate

Sometimes, readers, when they're young, are given, say, a book like 'Moby Dick' to read. And it is an interesting, complicated book, but it's not something that somebody who has never read a book before should be given as an example of why you'll really love to read, necessarily.

Deutsche Übersetzung

Manchmal erhalten Leser, wenn sie jung sind, zum Beispiel ein Buch wie „Moby Dick“, das sie lesen können. Und es ist ein interessantes, kompliziertes Buch, aber es ist nicht etwas, das jemand, der noch nie zuvor ein Buch gelesen hat, als ein Beispiel dafür genannt werden sollte, warum Sie es lieben, unbedingt zu lesen.

Facebook is made up of people you've met, but not necessarily who are similar to you. I have 850 'friends,' and a lot are acquaintances, not friends. I don't really know them. If I've met someone one time, how should they be influencing my feed?

I was reading poetry to my girlfriends, and they were like, 'You're really good. You should go to some poetry readings or something.' And I eventually went and got a, you know, somewhat of a name for myself and a little bit of a following.

But it is nice to know that you have other races lined up, because sometimes you can get so focused on your next marathon that it can become kind of unhealthy in some ways. So it's nice to have something else to slap you in the face and say, all right, there is life after the Olympics.

Compassion is sometimes the fatal capacity for feeling what it is like to live inside somebody else's skin. It is the knowledge that there can never really be any peace and joy for me until there is peace and joy finally for you too.
