Peter Ackroyd Zitate

Oh, I just tend to believe in things when I'm writing them. For instance, when I was writing 'Doctor Dee,' I believed in magic. And when I wrote 'Hawksmoor' I believed in psychic geography. But as soon as I type the last full stop, I'm back to being a complete blank again.

Deutsche Übersetzung

Oh, ich neige nur dazu, an Dinge zu glauben, wenn ich sie schreibe. Als ich zum Beispiel 'Doktor Dee' schrieb, glaubte ich an Magie. Und als ich 'Hawksmoor' schrieb, glaubte ich an psychische Geographie. Aber sobald ich den letzten Punkt eingebe, bin ich wieder komplett leer.

I started doing comedy because that was the only stage that I could find. It was the pure idea of being on stage. That was the only thing that interested me, along with learning the craft and working, and just being in productions with people.

One of the things is we tend to give up too soon. We get knocked down a couple of times, and we stay down. It's so important to get back up again.

At least for me, writing a book is continual exposure to blind spots. There were things I wanted to be true and wanted to believe, but it always got more complicated in the fiction.

I think about death a lot, I really do, because I can't believe I won't exist. It's the ego isn't it? I feel that I should retreat into a better form of Zen Buddhism than this kind of ego-dominated thing. But I don't know, I mean, I want to come back as a tree but I suspect that it's just not going to happen, is it?

Kate Atkinson

Because over and over again, the times that I've done really good things is because I've had a wonderful client of some kind, and a lot of it depended on me to induce them to be creative.
