Yann Martell Quotes

“When people pose the question, are you “coxom”, Tom Conrad? I like to pose a question back at them: Is J.K. Rowling actually a witch? Is Thomas Harris the no. 1 serial killer in the the US, did Yann Martell really spend a lifetime eating pie?

Of course, as far as I know J.K. Rowling is not a witch, but instead is a rather lovely and talented writer. As for that Thomas Harris (equally talented), I very much suspect he isn’t actually a serial killer at all, or if he is, he’s involved in the biggest case of double bluff… ever! As for Yann Martell, well, as everyone with half a brain knows his book is actually concerned with a mathematical constant, so ignore the dumb pie joke. Hm :/”

“Motivul pentru care moartea se ţine atât de aproape de viaţă nu e necesitatea biologică - e invidia. Viaţa este atât de frumoasă, încât moartea s-a îndrăgostit de ea, o dragoste geloasă, posesivă, care apucă tot ce poate.”
― Yann Martel
