Epigraph (Motto/Zitat) |
Die Informationen stammen von der englischen "Wissenswertes"-Seite. Ändern, um den Eintrag der eigenen Sprache anzupassen. The journey out through darkened lands / A way beneath the vaulted hill / The tidal years sound elder bells, / Though falcons cry and thrushes trill. Men of such stature, of such undeniable greatness, cast shadows beyond our limited world. - HALDEN: ESSAYS | |

I'm sure that every writer, at some point, has received encouragement and advice from kindly teachers, and in this I'm no different. This book is dedicated to them (for teachers receive so little credit for their work), especially the late Helen Fawcett, Chris Evans, Catharine Jones, and Larry Kendal, wherever he is. | |

It is, perhaps, less than true to say it all began in a brothel, but I found Samual Hayes hiding in such an establishment and this marked the turning point if not an actual beginning. How Samual Hayes had become misfortune's whipping boy, I will never understand. - the journal of Erasmus Flattery Memory is fiction, a narrative we write and rewrite to explain an ever-changing present, a story in which we are the hero, the victim, the wronged or the incomparable lover. And if memory is fiction, what then is history? - HALDEN: ESSAYS He has escaped from memory. A man may move either westward through life, following the light, or eastward toward the gathering darkness. It is a kind of orientation of temperament that is set in our earliest years; an emotional compass. One either pursues one's dreams or one's memories, and it is an exceptional man who, once his compass has been set, can alter it even a point or two. - HALDEN: ESSAYS Memory is nothing more than a receptacle of our past; the future is a fabric of dreams. And the much vaunted present, that which we are all to seize with a passion, is but the smallest measure of an instant, the single tick of a clock, a medium for translating the future into the past, dreams into memory. - MARIANNE EDDEN: A REFLECTION ON THE DEATH OF MICHAEL VALPY A memory is a dream turned to disappointment. - HALDEN | |
