Joshua Foer Zitate

We're all just a bundle of habits shaped by our memories. And to the extent that we control our lives, we do so by gradually altering those habits, which is to say the networks of our memory. No lasting joke, or invention, or insight, or work of art was ever produced by an external memory. Not yet, at least.

Deutsche Übersetzung

Wir sind alle nur ein Bündel von Gewohnheiten, die von unseren Erinnerungen geprägt werden. In dem Maße, in dem wir unser Leben kontrollieren, tun wir dies, indem wir diese Gewohnheiten, dh die Netzwerke unseres Gedächtnisses, schrittweise verändern. Kein bleibender Witz, keine Erfindung oder Einsicht oder Kunstwerk wurde jemals durch ein externes Gedächtnis erzeugt. Zumindest noch nicht.

I've never really found inspiration for story ideas in the news, but I'd say it certainly affects our lives in so many ways. I would say that certainly the stories of the day appear in the work - I just have never gone so far as to say, well, this particular event could influence a plot of an entire book.

Michael Koryta

Everything is not black-and-white. I'm really interested in the gray area - not justifying it, not glorifying it, not condoning it, but at least having people see there's a genesis for every event in our lives. There's some divine order to it, whether it's ugly or beautiful.

Isaiah Washington

I don't think Christ becomes real to us until we hit a low point in our lives and realize just how much we need Him. That's why faith affects every area of your life.

It seems as though our leaders have almost forgotten about legal immigration and are just leaving our borders open, which is a detriment culturally, financially, and in a lot of other realms for native people.

It was very much exaggerated, this information campaign, this sustained campaign against us. But if I may... Over the process of years, it will thaw out. I mean, just gradually through contact, through dialogue, through investment.
