Additional quotes by Nadine Gordimer
I cannot live with someone who can't live without me.
Change the world but keep bits of it the way I like it for myself — who wouldn’t make the world over if it were to be as easy as that.
My work means that we have lived in different parts of the world and in each there has always been something to be afraid of. Gangsters, extremist political groups Right and Left tossing bombs into restaurants, hijacks, holdups, a city plumb on the line of an earthquake fault. We have long had a compact, with ourselves, with life; life is dangerous. We live with that; in the one certainty that fear is the real killer.
