Will Self Zitate

The future continues to preoccupy me as a reliable source of hopes, fears and anxieties, but increasingly the present seems to have no outstanding qualities of its own, being merely a way-station through which events travel to the vast shadow lands of the past.

Deutsche Übersetzung

Die Zukunft beschäftigt mich immer noch als verlässliche Quelle von Hoffnungen, Ängsten und Ängsten, aber die Gegenwart scheint in zunehmendem Maße keine herausragenden Qualitäten zu besitzen, da sie lediglich eine Wegstation ist, durch die Ereignisse in die riesigen Schattenländer der Vergangenheit reisen.

The first presentation of my show was given in May, 1883, at Omaha, which I had then chosen as my home. From there we made our first summer tour, visiting practically every important city in the country.

In the past, I used to argue with those who didn't share my views. I felt this incredible need to 'make my point.' Now I live my life and do my best to be an example of what seems right to me.

Victoria Moran

The other aspect of idealism is the one which gives us our notion of the absolute Self. To it the first is only preparatory. This second aspect is the one which from Kant, until the present time, has formed the deeper problem of thought.

I wanted to show life and to see ourselves and our behaviour through an outsider's eye... from the point of view of someone who knows nothing about being a human being... He doesn't have the feelings that the rest of us do.

Kevin Peter Hall

Socially I never was an outsider. I have never thought of the conflict element before frankly, but perhaps it was wanting to belong, and at the same time wanting to retain one's own personality.

Carlisle Floyd

Jane Jacobs
