Joseph Brodsky Zitate

On the whole, infinity is a fairly palpable aspect of this business of publishing, if only because it extends a dead author's existence beyond the limits he envisioned, or provides a living author with a future he cannot measure. In other words, this business deals with the future which we all prefer to regard as unending.

Alles in allem ist Unendlichkeit ein ziemlich greifbarer Aspekt dieses Verlagsgeschäfts, schon allein deshalb, weil es die Existenz eines toten Autors über die Grenzen, die er sich vorstellt, erweitert oder einem lebenden Autor eine Zukunft schenkt, die er nicht messen kann. Mit anderen Worten, dieses Geschäft beschäftigt sich mit der Zukunft, die wir alle als unendlich betrachten.

What people forget is that the most radical thing about Obama is that he was the first black man in history to imagine that he could become president, who was able to make other Americans believe it as well. Other than that, he is a centrist, just like I try to be. He's been bridging divisions his whole life.

I don't know how other people perceive the lives of actors, but my life is fairly ordinary. I go to work, I come home, I put my kids to bed. If I'm home in time for dinner, I have dinner, and then it's bedtime.
