Zitat des Tages über Autobiographisch / Autobiographical:

I don't cry too often reading books, but I did reading Francisco Goldman's autobiographical novel, 'Say Her Name.' David Grann

People ask, 'Are your things autobiographical?,' and I think, no, they're not autobiographical directly, but of course my life has informed my work.

Andrea Arnold

I think all writing is necessarily autobiographical to a greater or lesser extent, and the less it tries to be confessional, the more likely it is that you're somehow sneaking the things you need to say in there.

John Darnielle

It's a real wrenching thing to go from being a private person to being a public person, especially when you're being autobiographical. But it's what everyone wants - to get everyone's attention, to have your music make a living for you, to be validated in that way.

James Taylor

Autobiographical comics, I love them. I love them.

Alison Bechdel

I had absolutely no trauma in my childhood. If anyone ever assumed that my books were autobiographical, they'd be sorely disappointed, because none of these things happened to me.

Jodi Picoult

The songs are not necessarily autobiographical. A lot of songs are a combination of influences. It might be some part of my life, or something I've felt, or something somebody's told me. It all comes together.

Tracy Chapman

Friends and family do not believe you write fiction. They truly believe that every word you write is either autobiographical or based on them. I once had a character say that she never wanted to be invited to another children's birthday party, and I never received another children's birthday party invitation ever again.

Liane Moriarty

My work looks like a comic book in form, but it's not a typical comic book in content. I write autobiographical stuff.

Harvey Pekar

I love James Baldwin's autobiographical writing.

Carrie Brownstein

All novels must be autobiographical because I am the only material that I know. All of the characters are me. But at the same time, a novel is never autobiographical even if it describes the life of the author. Literary writing is a completely different medium.

John Banville

'Nil By Mouth' was a bit autobiographical, but as I always pointed out at the time, that's not my dad.

Gary Oldman

Everything I do is autobiographical in some way. 'Wayne's World' was me growing up in the suburbs of Toronto and listening to heavy metal, and 'Austin Powers' was every bit of British culture that my father, who passed away in 1991, had forced me to watch and taught me to love.

Mike Myers

The stories are not autobiographical, but they're personal in that way. I seem to know only the things that I've learned. Probably some things through observation, but what I feel I know surely is personal.

Alice Munro

The most deeply personal of my works are the non-fiction works, the autobiographical works, because there, I'm talking about myself very directly.

Paul Auster

True stories, autobiographical stories, like some novels, begin long ago, before the acts in the account, before the birth of some of the people in the tale.

Harold Brodkey

In a sense, any story that anyone writes is going to be autobiographical - whether it deals directly with the author's experience or not - because it captures what we're obsessed with while working on that particular piece.

Molly Antopol

Of necessity, the autobiographical self is not just about one individual but about all the others that an individual interacts with. Of necessity, it incorporates the culture in which the interactions took place.

Antonio Damasio

All art is autobiographical. The pearl is the oyster's autobiography.

Federico Fellini

There is no doubt that this film is autobiographical, but at the same time it also tries to portray an ordinary couple in a language that everyone can understand.

Sophie Marceau

It's a real wrenching thing to go from being a private person to being a public person, especially when you're being autobiographical.

James Taylor

I think I had actually served my apprenticeship as a writer of fiction by writing all those songs. I had already been through phases of autobiographical or experimental stuff.

Kazuo Ishiguro

I think novels are profoundly autobiographical. If writers deny that, they are lying. Or if it's really true, then I think it's a mistake.

Amity Gaige

I'm not really an autobiographical writer, though I use lots of stuff from my life to make my stories seem real. But when I actually write about myself, I get very confused.

Jeffrey Eugenides

I don't cry too often reading books, but I did reading Francisco Goldman's autobiographical novel, 'Say Her Name.'

David Grann

I can't remove the autobiographical slant from the things I write. You always bring yourself into what you're writing.

Natalie Merchant

After 'Blankets,' I was sick of drawing myself and doing this autobiographical, mundane, Midwestern sort of comics. I wanted to create something bigger than myself and outside myself.

Craig Thompson

I wouldn't write anything autobiographical. If you've lived a life like Laurence of Arabia, it might be a consideration, but otherwise it's a little bit vain, it seems to me.

James Lee Burke

When I wrote my first book, 'The Tennis Party', my overriding concern was that I didn't write the autobiographical first novel. I was so, so determined not to write about a 24-year-old journalist. It was going to have male characters, and middle-aged people, so I could say, 'Look, I'm not just writing about my life, I'm a real author.'

Sophie Kinsella

I've yet to write a stand-up show that isn't autobiographical.

Mike Birbiglia

There's a certain point, when you're writing autobiographical stuff, where you don't want to misrepresent yourself. It would be dishonest.

Mark Strand

In each of my characters there is a little of me. Not strictly autobiographical but a little piece of my soul.

Dario Argento

In the early Seventies, I started writing a little autobiographical novel about my childhood - I made it into a mystery story.

Bobbie Ann Mason

I love songs that are very autobiographical.

Alanis Morissette

Poets can't resist the dramatic pull of their lives and so inevitably write autobiographical verse.

John Barton

My work is purely autobiographical... It is about myself and my surroundings.

Lucian Freud

All my music is autobiographical, and that's the reason why people like my music. They know when I'm saying something on a song, I mean it. It comes from a real place and captures the realness in my life.

Mike Posner
