Barry Humphries Zitate

In Edna, I created a satiric portrait of my hometown of Melbourne, a large provincial English city paradoxically in far Southeast Asia. She's a theatrical figure, related to vaudeville in some respects. She inhabits a world in which there are comparatively few female exponents of comedy.

Deutsche Übersetzung

In Edna entstand ein satirisches Porträt meiner Heimatstadt Melbourne, einer großen englischen Provinzstadt, die paradoxerweise in ganz Südostasien liegt. Sie ist eine Theaterfigur, die in gewisser Hinsicht mit Vaudeville verwandt ist. Sie lebt in einer Welt, in der es vergleichsweise wenige weibliche Vertreter der Comedy gibt.

Lebanon, Israel, Ireland, South Africa - wherever there is a bleeding sore on the body of the world, the same hard-eyed narrow-minded fanatics are busy, indifferent to life, in love with death.

Jobs, as such, are a relatively new concept. People may have always worked, but until the advent of the corporation in the early Renaissance, most people just worked for themselves. They made shoes, plucked chickens, or created value in some way for other people, who then traded or paid for those goods and services.
