Brooklyn Das passiert / Happens Ein weiterer / Another Freundschaften / Friendships Hätten / Had Schreiben / Writing Sich auflösen / Dissolve Vorstellen / Imagine
Books are a real solace, friendships are good but action is better than all.
I don't have many friends. It's not because I'm a misanthrope. It's because I'm reserved. I'm self-contained. I get all my adventures in my head when I'm writing my books.
Before I can finish one song, another is knocking on my door in my head.
That is happiness; to be dissolved into something complete and great.
When I read Toni Morrison and Sandra Cisneros as a freshman at Rutgers, it all clicked - that writing was all I wanted to do. It became my calling.
One man is as good as another until he has written a book.
I keep waiting, like in the cartoons, for an anvil to drop on my head.
There will never be another Mariano Rivera. He was a friend and a champion of a teammate.
Happiness is having a large, loving, caring, close-knit family in another city.
