Nicole Krauss Quotes About Feelings

• A veces, para pintar una cabeza hay que renunciar a toda la figura. Para pintar una hoja, tienes que sacrificar todo el paisaje.

• Incluso ahora, aún no existen todos los sentimientos posibles, todavía hay algunos que están más allá de nuestra capacidad y nuestra imaginación. De vez en cuando, cuando se produce una pieza musical que nadie ha escrito nunca o un cuadro que nadie ha pintado nunca, o algo imposible de predecir, comprender o describir, un nuevo sentimiento entra en el mundo.

• I’ve always liked the feeling of traveling light; there is something in me that wants to feel I could leave wherever I am, at any time, without any effort.
