Desiderius Erasmus Zitate

Deutsche Übersetzung

Ich bezweifle, dass eine einzelne Person aus der gesamten Menschheit ohne irgendeine Form von Wahnsinn gefunden werden könnte. Der einzige Unterschied ist der Grad. Ein Mann, der einen Kürbis sieht und für seine Frau nimmt, wird als wahnsinnig bezeichnet, weil dies nur wenigen Menschen passiert.

It's a mixed feeling when everything you've ever wanted in making films is coming true, and yet you feel scared because it's happening all at once. Suddenly you're in rooms with people you've looked up to for years, the Judi Denches. You wonder if you're good, if you have what it takes.

You hear a few people saying that, you know, maybe some of the past male players like to watch me play or whatever else, just because I play a bit differently and maybe they can relate to it a bit more with a bigger forehand rather than a backhand, good serve and whatnot.
