af

Jeg synes hun er en præmieperker, fordi det er blevet fremhævet så meget, at hun er indvandrer. Jeg har aldrig hørt nogen udtale sig om, at hun er en dygtig politiker.

2003, Bashy Quraishy, Dansk identitet, set med brune øjne: 15 samtaler:

I think she is a prize sand nigger, because the fact that she is an immigrant has been emphasized so much. I have never heard anyone say that she was a skilled politician.

But unlike you [an atheist], I at least have somewhere to go with my sorrow. Others drift around without purpose or destination, I wouldn't have been able to bear it. I need a Wailing Wall.

Ditlevsen gik direkte ind i rollen som Miss Lonely Hearts, men var – viste det sig snart – noget andet og mere end en grædemur. Hun mestrede den svære kunst at slutte sig naturligt til den spørgendes mentalitet, forudsætninger og erfaringsområde.

1997, Jens Andersen, Til døden os skiller: et portræt af Tove Ditlevsen:

Ditlevsen went right into her role as Miss Lonely Hearts, but was -- it soon turned out -- something else and more than a Wailing Wall. She mastered the difficult art of naturally tuning in to the asker's mentality, preconditions, and area of experience.
