Katherine Anne Porter Zitate

Deutsche Übersetzung

Das menschliche Leben selbst mag fast reines Chaos sein, aber das Werk des Künstlers besteht darin, diese Handvoll Verwirrung und disparate Dinge, Dinge, die unvereinbar zu sein scheinen, zu nehmen und sie in einem Rahmen zusammenzusetzen, um ihnen eine Form und Bedeutung zu geben.

When we put the pen to paper, we articulate things in our life that we may have felt vague about. Before you write about something, somebody says, 'How do you feel?' and you say, 'Oh, I feel okay.' Then you write about it, and you discover you don't feel okay.
