Little Richard Zitate – Sprüche auf Englisch mit Übersetzung

Zitat des Tages von Little Richard:

Plus I love Tanya Tucker and I love country music.

God gives us the ability, but rock 'n' roll was created by men.

Little Richard

I think they saw me as something like a deliverer, a way out. My means of expression, my music, was a way in which a lot of people wished they could express themselves and couldn't.

Little Richard

I never accepted the idea that I had to be guided by some pattern or blueprint.

Little Richard

Rock 'n' roll offered me a platform to speak what I felt. It also offered me a platform to support my mama and my brothers and sisters - twelve children.

Little Richard

I also like the banging piano - that old good-time piano.

Little Richard

And I think a woman should find it a joy to be female because God made both male and female.

Little Richard

I'm very much a gentleman in what I do.

Little Richard

I'm a conductor of revivals. The only minister in the whole package. Little Richard, the evangelist.

Little Richard

I don't think a woman has to act like a man to show that she has strength.

Little Richard

If I had my life to live over, I would want to be a man.

Little Richard

But when I went on the stage to do a show, I would put on makeup because I felt that it enhanced my act; it drew attention to what I was doing.

Little Richard

But I was singing loud, and most singers weren't singing loud.

Little Richard

I think people who don't believe in God are crazy. How can you say there is no God when you hear the birds singing these beautiful songs you didn't make?

Little Richard

I also think that what's wrong with all of us is that we don't show enough love toward each other.

Little Richard

I did what I felt, and I felt what I did, at all costs.

Little Richard

I try to be a guide for people, to make their darkness bright and to make the pathway light, and never to condemn or control or criticize.

Little Richard

And I don't get down on nobody else for doing whatever else they do. To each his own.

Little Richard

I tried to look presentable for a show, but not for sexual attraction. It was strictly for show business.

Little Richard

I always knew I was a man, always felt that I was a man, always wanted to be a man.

Little Richard

But men are so full of greed today, they'll sell anything for a little piece of money.

Little Richard

I only wore makeup when I went onstage.

Little Richard

I would wear flamboyant clothes and long hair, and most singers at the time didn't.

Little Richard

I am the architect of rock n' roll. I have to be a fan of all its forms.

Little Richard

I was really kind of shy as a child. But I would do things for attention.

Little Richard

I think God made a woman to be strong and not to be trampled under the feet of men. I've always felt this way because my mother was a very strong woman, without a husband.

Little Richard

I was always my own person.

Little Richard

God is omnipotent, He is omniscient, and He is ever present.

Little Richard

When you sit down and think about what rock 'n' roll music really is, then you have to change that question. Played up-tempo, you call it rock 'n' roll; at a regular tempo, you call it rhythm and blues.

Little Richard

Now they have banging guitar and no bass and call it rock, but that's not what I call rock.

Little Richard

I think that a man should be caring.

Little Richard

To me, true rock 'n' roll has a lot of bottom in it.

Little Richard

I don't give the devil credit for creating nothing.

Little Richard

No, I've never truly been a minister.

Little Richard

I've never seen the devil create music.

Little Richard

It was a way out of poverty. It was a way to success. It was a way to education. And it was a way to a brighter day for me.

Little Richard

Greed has taken the whole universe, and nobody is worried about their soul.
