Life Story Quotes - Page 2

• People need to understand that what happens in people's homes and behind closed doors, unless you were there, you really shouldn't make any analogy or any assumption, which writers do quite a bit. It's not something I ever for one second thought about. This is not my life story, and I've never told my life story, and I have no interest in telling my life story.

• ¿Con qué frecuencia contamos la historia de nuestra vida? ¿Con qué frecuencia la ajustamos, la embellecemos, la recortamos astutamente? Y cuanto más larga es la vida, menos personas están cerca para cuestionar nuestro relato, para recordarnos que nuestra vida no es nuestra vida, sino sólo la historia que hemos contado sobre nuestra vida. Contada a los demás, pero sobre todo a nosotros mismos.
