Kathryn Stockett Zitate

When I grew older and awkward, when my parents divorced and life had gone all to hell, Demetrie stood me at the wardrobe mirror and told me over and over, 'You are beautiful. You are smart. You are important.' It was an incredible gift to give a child who thinks nothing of herself.

Als ich älter und unbeholfen wurde, als meine Eltern sich scheiden ließen und das Leben zur Hölle gegangen war, stellte sich Demetrie am Garderobenspiegel und sagte mir immer wieder: „Du bist wunderschön. Du bist schlau. Du bist wichtig.' Es war ein unglaubliches Geschenk, ein Kind zu geben, das nicht an sich denkt.

There's going to be all different price points, and you get what you pay for. There's certainly low things made of cardboard that you don't put on your head, you just hold up little viewers that give you this glimmer of what VR could be.

Nick is 11 and a half years younger than I am, so his mom is only, like, 11 or 12 years older than me. I didn't call her Mrs. Offerman because that would be weird because we're, like, the same age, so I think I went straight to Cathy, but there's a mom element, and his parents are so great.
