Timur Vermes
“In Berlin I have time and again met people who make no secret of the fact that their only reason for stirring at such an ungodly hour of the morning is so that they can leave the office earlier in the afternoon. I have suggested to several of these eight-hour logicians that they ought to start work at ten o’clock at night, thereby allowing them to leave at six in the morning and perhaps even arrive home before it is time to get up.”
Timur Vermes, Er ist wieder da

Anna Gavalda
“،زندگی حتی وقتی انکارش می‌کنی
،حتی وقتی نادیده‌اش می‌گیری
حتی وقتی نمی‌خواهی‌اش
.از تو قوی‌تر است
.از هر چیز دیگری قوی‌تر است

آدم‌هایی که از بازداشتگاه‌های کار اجباری برگشتند
.دوباره زاد و ولد کردند
،مردان و زنانی که شکنجه دیده بودند
که مرگ نزدیکانشان و سوخته شدن خانه‌هایشان را
،دیده بودند
،دوباره دنبال اتوبوس‌ها دویدند
به پیش بینی‌های هوا‌شناسی با دقت گوش کردند
.و دختر‌هایشان را شوهر دادند
.باور کردنی نیست اما همین گونه است
.زندگی از هر چیز دیگری قوی‌تر است”
Anna Gavalda, Someone I Loved
