John McGahern Zitate

Amongst Women concentrated on the family, and the new book concentrates on a small community. The dominant units in Irish society are the family and the locality. The idea was that the whole world would grow out from that small space.

Bei Women konzentrierte sich die Familie auf die Familie, und das neue Buch konzentrierte sich auf eine kleine Gemeinschaft. Die dominierenden Einheiten in der irischen Gesellschaft sind die Familie und der Ort. Die Idee war, dass die ganze Welt aus diesem kleinen Raum herauswachsen würde.

My grandmother was the greatest cook in the world. She could just go in there, the whole kitchen would look like a tornado hit it and then she'd come out with the best food. Then she'd sit at the table and she wouldn't eat!

My blood sugar went out of control. Diabetes runs in my family, so I went to see my doctor. He was like, 'Buck up,' and it was sort of the wake-up call that I needed to hear.

A lot of women will be sort of 'competitive like a guy' in the workplace, but then when they go home, they realize that's not fully authentic for them. They would like to have a more expansive or more authentic relationship in the workplace around competition.
