Answer:
The Author of the above quote is Yann Martel.
Explanation:
The quote is from "On a lifeboat." The full quote of Yann martel says "Life on boat isn't much of a life. It is like an end game in chess, a game with few pieces. The elements couldnt't be more simple, nor the stakes higher. Physically it is extraodinarily ardous and morally it is killing. You must make adjustments if you want to survive. Much becomes expendable. you get your happiness where you can. you reach a point where you are at the bottom of hell, yet you have your arms crossed and a smile on your face, and you feel you are the luckiest person on earth. why? Because at your feet you have a tiny dead fish."
