Quotes by Яна Вагнер (?)

“Отсутствующие друзья всегда становятся объектом злословия, пусть даже в легкой, самой безобидной его разновидности. Это факт, хотя признать его способны разве что смельчаки, не боящиеся одиночества. Всем прочим приходится научиться закрывать на это глаза.”
― Яна Вагнер, Кто не спрятался

“…люди редко говорят о том, что их мучает на самом деле, и потому причиной иссушающих сражений становится свет, не выключенный в ванной, невовремя выброшенная газета и плохо вымытая посуда.”
― Яна Вагнер, Кто не спрятался

“Любой из двоих - и, пожалуй, неважно, счастливы они друг с другом или уже нет, - покопавшись в памяти, способен обнаружить в общем прошлом момент, когда он лишился восторга. В первый раз на мгновение вынырнул из морока, сделал вдох и увидел правду. Заглянул за кулисы.
Одна ничтожная точка. Событие, разговор, ракурс, - но впечатление необратимо, и, даже если быстро зажмуриться, мгновенно задернуть занавес и бегом вернуться на место, возникшую прореху уже не починить, и с этих пор сквозь неё всегда будет немного, чуть-чуть просвечивать обратная сторона. Покажутся проволока и крашеный картон. Спутанные изнаночные швы.”
― Яна Вагнер, Кто не спрятался

Яна’s Quotes

“The first duty of the novelist is to entertain. It is a moral duty. People who read your books are sick, sad, traveling, in the hospital waiting room while someone is dying. Books are written by the alone for the alone.”
― Donna Tartt
