Share on LinkedIn Share on Whatsapp Share on Telegram Yann Martel Quote - The planet is populated by human beings, of which there are only two sexes, and the role of the writer is to explore otherness, other realities.

I am not a person who can write in paragraphs the way some writers do. For me, it’s sentence by sentence, sometimes word-by-word. And I revise constantly. It’s a very laborious process, but I love doing it.

Share on LinkedIn Share on Whatsapp Share on Telegram Yann Martel Quote - Life is an interpretation of a series of facts, and that interpretation is really what life is about. So the division between non-fiction and fiction has a certain logic, but it’s a very limited one. And by and large, it isn’t helpful. Download This Image

Yet scientists use this irrational number to come to a “rational” understanding of the universe. To me, religion is a bit like that, “irrational” yet with it we come together we come to a sound understanding of the universe.
