Герта Мюллер цитаты

„Родина связана и с тем, как складывалась биография. Всё, что было в жизни, формирует наши представления о том, какой мы можем видеть родину. Поэтому найти «своё» и найти себя жителям стран Восточной Европы тяжелее. Во что верить? На что опереться в прошлом?“

Under a tree, yes but the tree can't help that.”

“World world sister world
When shall I tire of you.
When my bread is dry
When my hand forgets my glass
When the coffin’s boxed me in
Maybe that’s when I’ll be tired of you.
…
Living is despairing
And the dead they rot away”

“You can't rearrange freshly fallen snow, you can't fix snow so it looks untouched. You can rework earth, and sand and even grass if you try hard enough. Water takes care of itself, because it swallows everything and flows back together once it's done swallowing. And air is always in place because you can't see it. Everything but snow would have kept quiet.”
