Quotes by Niviaq Korneliussen  (?)
Quotes are added by the Goodreads community and are not verified by Goodreads. (Learn more)

“Some people are destined to change the world. They give love. They have the power to forgive. They work hard for what they believe in. They gain the public’s attention. They are the few people useful to society. These people must be supported since they are the ones that are valuable and have something to give back. Then there are all the rest that must support the few. These people must sacrifice themselves so that the good ones can be successful in life. Very stupid of me to think that I was the first kind of person. I am the second kind.”
Niviaq Korneliussen

“Daydreams are accompanied by forbidden emotions.”
Niviaq Korneliussen, Last Night in Nuuk

“The real world greets me. The real world arrives every day and the real world hurts.”
Niviaq Korneliussen, Homo Sapienne
