Peter Ackroyd Zitate

My great fear has always been complete and utter failure. Hence, you see, all the dispossessed people in my fiction, and why I try to earn as much money as I can. It's a defense. I don't enjoy it or do anything with it.

Deutsche Übersetzung

Meine große Angst war immer vollkommen und völlig versagt. Sie sehen also alle enteigneten Leute in meiner Fiktion und warum ich so viel Geld verdienen möchte, wie ich kann. Es ist eine Verteidigung. Ich mag es nicht oder mache nichts damit.

If I had not gotten along so well with some of the people on the show, it would have been a different story. But in this case, it was great. But sure, it will be fun to look around.

I became the toast of London. A lot of people I met came from these really decadent families where the married men were gay and no one thought anything about it.

I have always been the first on the dance floor. Before fame, people thought it made me a good laugh; now, people point and call me an attention seeker! I'm very aware of the way people can view me, but I'm very aware that I have to just enjoy my life.

It's important to not marginalize any people group in fiction. A complete, authentic-feeling world should include many different elements of life and culture. For this reason, my books will almost always contain people of faith.
