Alıntı yaparak yanıtla2007 yili Nobel Edebiyat Odulu sahibi Iran dogumlu Ingiliz romanci, sair, oyun yazari, librettist, biyografi ve kisa oyku yazari (Doris May Tayler) Doris Lessing’in dogum yildonumu (22 Ekim 1919)
"Bu, normal saydigimiz turden bir seydi. Hepimiz icin oyle anlar vardi ki, oynamayi kabul ettigimiz oyun, olaylari metanetle karsilamamiza yetiyordu: Bir gercek disilik duygusunun pencesine dusuyorduk; mide bulantisi gibi. Belki de asil dusman bu duyguydu...ya da biz buna inaniyorduk. Belki de, aslinda kayda deger ya da en azindan geri dondurulemez bir seyin olmadigina iliskin gizli, sozsuz bir anlasma yapmis olmamizin nedeni, bizim icin asil dusmanin gerceklik olmasiydi; gercekle yuzlesemez, kendimize olup biteni "anlama" iznini veremezdik. Boyle el birligiyle numara yapmamiz, kendimizi ciplak, savunmasiz hissettigimiz anlarda tamamen hayalperestlik ve sacmalik gibi gorunse de, belki hayran olunasi bir yetenek sayilmaliydi? Tipki cocuklarin bazi oyunlarda, gercekligi kendilerinden, zayifliklarindan mumkun oldugunca uzakta tutabilmek icin rol yapmalari, farkli rollere burunebilmeleri gibi." Hayatta Kalma Guncesi
“This is the sort of thing we accepted as normal. Yet for all of us there were moments when the game we were all agreeing to play simply could not stand up to events: we would be gripped by feelings of unreality, like nausea. Perhaps this feeling, that the ground was dissolving under our feet, was the real enemy… or we believed it to be so. Perhaps our tacit agreement that nothing much-or at least nothing irrecoverable-was happening was because for us the enemy was Reality, was to allow ourselves to know what was happening. Perhaps our pretences, everyone’s pretences, which in the moments when we felt naked, defenceless, seemed like playacting and absurd, should be regarded as admirable? Or perhaps they were necessary, like the games of children who can make playacting a way of keeping reality a long way from their weaknesses?”
