Quotes by Isabel Fonseca  (?)
Quotes are added by the ŷ community and are not verified by ŷ.

“On the whole, lying is a cheerful affair. Embellishments are intended to give pleasure. People long to tell you what they imagine you want to hear. They want to amuse you; they want to amuse themselves; they want to show you a good time. This is beyond hospitality. This is art.”
Isabel Fonseca, Bury Me Standing: The Gypsies and Their Journey

“A náci korszak számos "cigányügi szakértője" a háború után is folytathatta munkáját a szövetségi kormányban, így aztán a cigányok többségének helyzete mit sem változott a Harmadik Birodalom összeonlásával.”
Isabel Fonseca, Bury Me Standing: The Gypsies and Their Journey

“Mackay had just failed to tip the coat-check girl and was now blinking and working his arms into a too-small trench coat; he looked like a seagull trying to lift up out of an oil spill.”
Isabel Fonseca, Attachment
