Buchhandlung / Bookstore Zitate auf Englisch

Zitat des Tages über Buchhandlung / Bookstore:

It seems preposterous now, but Amazon began as a bookstore. George Packer

When I was a boy, my parents were writers and they owned a bookstore, 'The Complete Traveler in New York,' so writing and books have held special places in my heart all my life.

Mike Greenberg

It's one thing for the people in the industry to know who you are, because they've heard about you earlier. I have friends calling me from the Christian bookstore because there's a poster on the wall. It's just weird.

Stacie Orrico

I didn't know there was a dying-professor section at the bookstore.

Randy Pausch

Reading is such a personal thing to me. I'd much rather give someone a gift certificate to a bookstore, and let that person choose his or her own books.

Erik Larson

The daily quota I've set for myself is 500 words or approximately a page and a half double-spaced. Which isn't much, except that I'm extremely slow, extremely meticulous. 'Le mot juste' haunts me. On a good day, I will finally secrete the 500th word at about 5 o'clock, and I'll reward myself by going to Housing Works Bookstore to read.

Said Sayrafiezadeh

It seems preposterous now, but Amazon began as a bookstore.

George Packer

I worked in a bookstore in Oslo, importing the English-language books.

Per Petterson

The most colorful section of a bookstore is the display of SF books, with art by people like Wayne Barlow, who is a terrific artist.

Bruce Boxleitner

I thought that my life would be spent working in a bookstore, teaching community college, and making music in my spare time that no one would be willing to listen to.

Moby

The Internet rewards scale; by trading higher up-front costs for lower marginal cost, market leaders can invest in better technology and service. As a result, there is nothing online that is both great in quality and small in scale. Amazon wasn't originally a better bookstore than the small shops we mourn, but it is now.

John Katzman

Here, you can walk into a bookstore and pick up a Bible or Christian literature and learn. Over there, they are lucky if they have one Bible for a whole village.

Michael Scott

Where is human nature so weak as in the bookstore?

Henry Ward Beecher

If Snowden really claims that his actions amounted to genuine civil disobedience, he should go to some English language bookstore in Moscow and get a copy of Henry David Thoreau's 'Civil Disobedience'.

Michael Hayden

By then I was in Brooklyn and drank my way through that summer. I stopped when I got sick of that and got a job at the Strand bookstore, which was a little better than the tax job.

Robert Quine

Don't patronize the chain bookstores. Every time I see some author scheduled to read and sign his books at a chain bookstore, I feel like telling him he's stabbing the independent bookstores in the back.

Lawrence Ferlinghetti

I picked up 'On Moral Fiction' in the bookstore and looked up myself in the index, but I didn't read it through. I try not to read things that depress me.

John Updike

Any independent bookstore that has managed to survive is the best place to do a reading.

Ruth Ozeki

I can walk into a bookstore and hand over my credit card and they don't know who the hell I am. Maybe that says something about bookstore clerks.

E. L. Doctorow

What has always surprised me when I walk into a bookstore is the number of books that you can find that are written with certainty. The authors tell some story as though it's true, but they don't have any evidence that it is true!

David Eagleman

This is a feminist bookstore. There is no humor section.

John Callahan

I hate that bookstores are closing. Hate it! What's better than hanging out a bookstore, be it independent or chain, and talking books with people who love books?

Lisa Jackson

I'm totally into new age and self-help books. I used to work in a bookstore and that's the section they gave me, and I got way into it. I just loved the power of positive thinking, letting yourself go.

Jason Mraz

My goal is two pages a day, five days a week. I never want to write, but I'm always glad that I have done it. After I write, I go to work at the bookstore.

Kate DiCamillo

I get crazy in a bookstore. It makes my heart beat hard because I want to buy everything.

Reese Witherspoon

Genre is a bookstore problem, not a literary problem.

Rick Moody

Fantasy novels, I don't really gravitate to that part of the bookstore.

Peter Dinklage

If you're going to have a book published in China, that means that you're going to be subject to in-house censorship at the publisher, and then also, of course, the government has an apparatus that is in charge of making sure that ideas that are considered disruptive or overly critical, that those don't get onto bookstore shelves.

Evan Osnos

No matter how much money I made from writing, I'd keep the bookstore job.

Jami Attenberg

I've always loved the language of flowers. I discovered Kate Greenaway's 'Language of Flowers' in a used bookstore when I was 16 and couldn't believe it was such a well-kept secret. How could something so beautiful and romantic be virtually unknown?

Vanessa Diffenbaugh

I work full-time in a used bookstore. I get up. I drink a cup of coffee. I think, The last thing I want to do is write. Then I go to the computer and write.

Kate DiCamillo

Go to any bookstore, and you'll see thousands of books on etiquette, which suggests there's a lot of self-help going on. There is hope.

Letitia Baldrige

A man in a bookstore buys a book on loneliness and every woman in the store hits on him. A woman buys a book on loneliness and the store clears out.

Douglas Coupland

Get your friends together, go to your local bookstore and have a book-buying party.

Roy Blount, Jr.

A bookstore has thousands of titles to sell. You need to be the guy the store attendant recommends to the reader.

Ravi Subramanian

There is that romanticized idea of what a bookstore can be, what a library can be, what a shop can be. And to me, they are that. These are places that open doors into other worlds if only you're open to them.

Ruth Reichl

A bookstore is one of the only pieces of evidence we have that people are still thinking.

Jerry Seinfeld
