Nathaniel Philbrick Zitate

The great lesson I get from 'Moby-Dick' is that when the times are bad, when there is great foreboding, there are still ways to go about living. It's through Ishmael that I find a kind of overall cosmic approach to a meaningful life in this meaningless world.

Die großartige Lektion, die ich von 'Moby-Dick' bekomme, ist, dass es in schlechten Zeiten und bei großer Vorahnung immer noch Möglichkeiten gibt, zu leben. Durch Ishmael finde ich eine Art kosmischer Gesamtansatz für ein sinnvolles Leben in dieser sinnlosen Welt.

Well, I didn't really grow up playing or listening to metal, like many of the kids I went to school with. I only got into it in my late teens, so when Marilyn Manson formed, it was at a time when I was still excited about approaching music from that angle.
