William Saroyan híres idézetei

„Mindenkiért eljön egyszer a halál, de én világéletemben hittem abban, hogy az én esetemben majd kivételt tesz.”

William Saroyan

„Ha nevetsz, akkor pokolian nevess. És ha mérges vagy, akkor légy jó dühös. Próbálj életben lenni. Elég hamar halott leszel.”

William Saroyan

William Saroyan: Idézetek angolul

“I have been vitally aware of the Law of Opposites, and this awareness has kept me reasonably serene… the drama of life… the play of truth. the quarrel of fools and frauds, male and female, the classic and the romantic, the disciplined and the free… the comic and the tragic contrasting of the opposites in all areas of possibility and on and on and on.”

Obituaries (1979)

“I was four years old, and had long since reasoned that it was folly to expect the big things from people. It was enough to get the little things. The biggest thing, of course, was love, the nearness of somebody you love when you need somebody to be near.”

Madness in the Family (1988)

“The bicycle is a city thing, virtually useless anywhere excepting on a pavement or hard surface of some kind. Without the road it would never have been invented. It is a little mad, both in design and purpose. Two wheels held together in a frame, with a simple mechanical system enabling a forward movement for one person.”

Madness in the Family (1988)

“Going around the world on a bicycle is no longer enough -- the daredevil has got to go around the moon on a Pogo stick with one arm tied behind him if he wants to get his picture in the paper.”
