Quotes by Andreas Steinhöfel (?)

“Das habe ich nie vergessen. Dass man liebt, um die Kälte zu vergessen und den Winter zu vertreiben.”
― Andreas Steinhöfel, Die Mitte der Welt

“Das habe ich gelernt: Liebe ist ein Wort, das du nur mit blutroter Tinte schreiben solltest. Liebe treibt dich dazu, die seltsamsten Dinge zu tun. Sie lässt dich regenbogenfarbene Bonbons verteilen, sie lässt dich in roten Schuhen durch die Straßen tanzen, und sie schreckt nicht davor zurück, dich nachts mit blutenden Händen Gräber in paradiesische Gärten hacken zu lassen. Liebe schlägt dir tiefe Wunden, aber auf eine ihr eigene Art heilt sie auch deine Narben, vorausgesetzt, du vertraust ihr und gibst ihr die Zeit dazu. Meine Narben werde ich nicht anrühren. Ich werde neue Wunden davontragen, noch ehe die alten verheilt sind, und ich werde anderen Menschen Wunden zufügen. Jeder von uns trägt ein Messer." (S.456f.)”

“Kinder sind Wachs in den Händen der Welt. Offene Bücher mit leeren Seiten, die von uns Erwachsenen beschrieben werden. Was in den ersten Kapiteln steht, kriegst du den Rest deines Lebens nicht mehr aus der Wäsche. [...] Dort schrieb sie ins uns: Seid stark und wehrt euch. Wer euch verletzt, dem tut doppelt weh oder geht aus dem Weg, aber lasst euch nie vorschreiben, wie ihr zu leben habt. Ich liebe euch wie ihr seid.”
