Ian Buruma Quote

Gerçekle yüz yüze gelmeyi, çoğu kez hayal kırıklığı izler. Beauvoir'nın anlattığına göre, Sartre ABD'den bütün gördükleri biraz afallamış olarak döndü. İnsanlardan elbette hoşlanmış ve Roosevelt'e hayran kalmıştı; ama Beauvoir'nın ifadesiyle Batı yarıkürenin uygarlığında ekonomik sistem, ayrımcılık ve ırkçılık dışında onu şoka uğratan birçok şey vardı - Amerikalıların tutuculuğu, değerler ölçeği, efsaneleri, iyimserlikleri, her türlü trajik şeyden kaçınışları.
