Amerikali roman ve kisa oyku yazari Jess Walter’in dogum gunu (20 Temmuz 1965)
“Inancin varmis gibi davran, inanc sana verilecektir. Shane bu felsefeyle lisede mesafe kosucusuymus gibi davrandi, iki odul aldi. Tam not ogrencisi gibi davrandi, isi kivirdi. Amigo kizlardan biri kanatlarinin altindaymis gibi davrandi, kiz onu dansa davet etti. Kaliforniya, Berkeley icin en kuvvetli adaymis gibi davrandi, oraya girdi. Italyanca konusuyormus gibi yapti, bir yil yurt disinda egitim gordu. Yazarmis gibi yapti, Arizona Universitesi’nin MFA yaratici yazi programina kabul edildi. Asikmis gibi yapti, evlendi.”
“So in high school, Shane acted as if he were a distance runner and lettered twice, acted as if he were an A student and pulled them, acted as if a certain cheerleader was in his wheelhouse and she asked him to a dance, acted as if he were a shooin for California, Berkeley and got in and for Sigma Nu and they pledged him, acted as if he acted as if he spoke Italian and studied abroad for a year, acted as if he were a writer and got accepted to the University of Arizona's MFA creative writing program, acted as if he were in love and got married.”
