 Memory is the way we keep telling ourselves our stories - and telling other people a somewhat different version of our stories.
  Alice Munro

Mer information om detta ordspråk och citat! Ibland tar jag början till en novell från ett minne, en anekdot, men det glöms bort och är oftast oigenkännligt i den slutliga versionen.

  Alice Munro

 When I'm doing the first draft, I have a so-much-a-day schedule. But when I start putting it on the computer I can get carried away, and I try to go as far as I can every day, as if I were going to die in the night or something.
  Alice Munro

 Lovers of literature will look for the remains of the golden treasure in that shipwreck on the bottom of the sea of criticism.

 Books are companions, teachers, magicians, bankers of the treasures of the mind. Books are humanity in print.
  Barbara W. Tuchman

 Books are humanity in print.
  Barbara W. Tuchman
