Jonathan Safran Foer idézet

Jonathan Safran Foer egyesült államokbeli író. Leginkább Minden vilángol és Rém hangosan és irtó közel című regényeiről ismert. 2009-ben megjelentetett egy ismeretterjesztő művet Állatok a tányéromon címmel. Annak ellenére, hogy munkáit széles körű szakmai elismerés övezi, egyfajta megosztó személy maradt a kritikusok körében, akit szenvedélyes dicséretekkel és kritikákkal egyaránt elhalmoznak. Jelenleg kreatív írást tanít a New York Egyetemen. Wikipedia

Which surprised me very much
But I understand now
That she had found places
For her melancholy
That were behind more masks
Than only her eyes”

“What did thinking ever do for me, to what great place did thinking ever bring me? I think and think and think. I've thought myself out of happiness one million times, but never once into it.”

Jonathan Safran Foer könyv Extremely Loud and Incredibly Close

Forrás: Extremely Loud and Incredibly Close (2005)
Kontextus: I never thought about things at all, everything changed, the distance that wedged itself between me and my happiness wasn't the world, it wasn't the bombs and burning buildings, it was me, my thinking, my cancer of never letting go, is ignorance bliss, I don't know, but it's so painful to think, and tell me, what did thinking ever do for me, to what great place did thinking ever bring me? I think and think and think, I've thought myself out of happiness one million times, but never once into it. (p. 17)
