Stream of consciousness about a dirty old man, writing books & inappropriate relationships with dogs. Wasn’t for me.

To nie jest dlatego, że wolę koty. Tu nawet nie było za wiele o pięknej więzi pies-człowiek. Autorka skakała po tematach, jak Gucio po kwiatkach, a żaden z nich nie był interesująco pociągnięty.
Cytowanie innych książek, filmów - ja naprawdę mogę sobie sama to wyszukać w internecie, a jeśli nie masz pomysłu na ciekawą książkę, to warto sobie darować.
Okropna strata czasu.

“What’s up, pup? Did you have a nice nap? Were you chasing something in your sleep? Do you want to go out? Are you hungry? Are you happy? Does your arthritis hurt? Why won’t you play with other dogs? Are you an angel? Do you want me to read to you? Do you want me to sing? Who loves you? Do you love me? Will you love me forever? Do you wanna dance? Am I the best person you’ve ever had? Can you tell I’ve been drinking? Do these jeans make me look fat?”
“Strays is what a writer I recently read calls those who, for one reason or another, and despite whatever they might have wanted earlier in life, never really become a part of life, not in the way most people do.”
“Beware irony, ignore criticism, look to what is simple, study the small and humble things of the world, do what is difficult precisely because it is difficult, do not search for answers but rather love the questions, do not run away from sadness or depression for these might be the very conditions necessary to your work. Seek solitude, above all seek solitude.”
“Walking with Samuel Beckett one fine spring morning, a friend of his asked, Doesn’t a day like this make you glad to be alive? I wouldn’t go as far as that, Beckett said.”
