Behind the complicated details ordspråk

Behind the complicated details of the world stand the simplicities: God is good, the grown-up man or woman knows the answer to every question, there is such a thing as truth, and justice is as measured and faultless as a clock. Our heroes are simple: they are brave, they tell the truth, they are good swordsmen and they are never in the long run really defeated. That is why no later books satisfy us like those which were read to us in childhood /for those promised a world of great simplicity of which we knew the rules, but the later books are complicated and contradictory with experience; they are formed out of our own disappointing memories.

Graham Greene (1904-1991)

To me, the only way songwriting works is if you write the truth. It's the only way it works, period. Where I'm going as a writer, what I'm looking for is an expansion of the truth, finding out more truth - especially about me. It's easier to write about me, because I know where I am. As a younger man, it was easy to get to my truth: I was a simple man, having fun. As you get older it gets more complicated - but it's also about opening up a lot more places. After all, that's where the deeper truth resides,

Pat Green

The books one reads in childhood, and perhaps most of all the bad and good bad books, create in one's mind a sort of false map of the world, a series of fabulous countries into which one can retreat at odd moments throughout the rest of life, and whi

George Orwell (1903-1950)

Böcker

The Compleat Angler is acknowledged to be one of the world's books. Only the trouble is that the world doesn't read its books, it borrows a detective story instead.

Stephen Leacock (1869-1944)

There are enough books in the world. You want to write the ones that are good. The minute you write books because you need the income not because you think you have a good subject, you should just stop. There are sixty thousand books published in this country every year, and most of them are crap.

Michael Lewis

Dreams, books, are each a world; and books, we know,
Are a substantial world, both pure and good:
Round these, with tendrils strong as flesh and blood,
Our pastime and our happiness will grow.

William Wordsworth (1770-1850)

He wanted to make a picture for children. So I read a lot of stuff and he read a lot of stuff. . . . But I don't like all those fantasy books, I'm not good at 'Lord of the Rings' and the 'Harry Potters.' . . . It's not my world. I like things to do with reality and the world we live in -- or lived in.

Ronald Harwood (1934-)

We're breaking huge monopolies. It just can't happen overnight. The time is takes is dependent on how long it takes to get rules on the books and whether or not the (Baby Bells) take the rules to court which is their right. Without question, consumers are going to get the competition Congress and the president promised,

Edward Markey

Buying books would be a good thing if one could also buy the time to read them in: but as a rule the purchase of books is mistaken for the appropriation of their contents.

Arthur Schopenhauer (1788-1860)

Böcker

It's clear to me that there is no good reason for many philosophy books to sound as complicated as they do.

Alain de Botton (1969-)

Books which satisfy us and feed us and nourish us have to have this substratum of genuine truth in them, ... And I don't see much of that in most fantasy.

Philip Pullman (1946-)

Did satisfy myself mighty fair in the truth of the saying that the world do not grow old at all, but is in as good condition in all respects as ever it was.

Samuel Pepys (1633-1703)

It's just too complicated for them to get it from a brochure, or a Web site, or to answer the critical question of, 'What does this mean for me?' ... Unfortunately, it's going to take a real world test for us to figure out whether this works or doesn't work.

Drew Altman

The books we think we ought to read are poky, dull, and dry; The books that we would like to read we are ashamed to buy; The books that people talk about we never can recall; And the books that people give us, oh, they're the worst of all.

Carolyn Wells (1862-1942)

And simple truth miscalled simplicity,
And captive good attending captain ill.

William Shakespeare (1564-1616)
