Derek Walcott Zitate

I go back to St. Lucia, and the exhilaration I feel is not simply the exhilaration of homecoming and of nostalgia. It is almost an irritation of feeling: 'Well, you never got it right. Now you have another chance. Maybe you can try and look harder.'

Deutsche Übersetzung

Ich gehe zurück nach St. Lucia, und die Erheiterung, die ich empfinde, ist nicht einfach die Erheiterung der Heimkehr und der Nostalgie. Es ist fast eine Irritation des Gefühls: „Nun, du hast es nie richtig verstanden. Jetzt hast du noch eine Chance. Vielleicht können Sie versuchen, härter auszusehen. '

I never smile when I have a bat in my hands. That's when you've got to be serious. When I get out on the field, nothing's a joke to me. I don't feel like I should walk around with a smile on my face.

Hank Aaron

The Italians are very unmusical. If I go to a Protestant church in London or Amsterdam or listen to a black choir, I hear four-part harmony. Italians could never do that. In Italy, we all have to sing the melody because we cannot harmonise.

Gian Carlo Menotti

Today I bought two lottery tickets, because I had a feeling that it would be now or never - they were both blanks. So I am not going to be rich after all. Nothing at all to be done about it.

I feel the emotion that life conjures up and the songs I write get me closer to my feelings and realising who I am. It's a natural process.

If you've never felt that you quite got a hold of it, you just feel that before you die, you've got to try and get it right once. And hope that the experience you have makes up for the some of the diminishing energy.

Robert Wyatt
