Geoffrey Boycott Zitate

'Boycott caused all the trouble,' they say, as if I could have canvassed all those people personally to take a stand in 1983. Nonsense! The committee were the ones with the power to make the decisions, not me. They started the unrest, they did the sackings, and they reaped what they sowed.

Deutsche Übersetzung

"Boykott hat all die Schwierigkeiten verursacht", sagen sie, als hätte ich all diese Leute persönlich dazu bewegen können, 1983 Stellung zu beziehen. Unsinn! Das Gremium hatte die Macht, die Entscheidungen zu treffen, nicht ich. Sie begannen mit der Unruhe, erledigten die Entlassung und ernteten, was sie säen.

I don't spend any time thinking about my place in history, ever. If people say I changed things, it's nice, and I take it - but if I could give it to a charity it would be useful. I really believe now that my only job in life is to achieve a state of comfort and happiness.

I would like to do a musical, if I could find a cool one. A song-and-dance role is closer to me personally than other characters I play.

I've had writing sessions with people, but I've never had one where you're just there, and you start making a song, and then it's too good to be true that something really cool will come out of this.

I think a person who is disabled should be disabled by no act of their own. If you become disabled because of alcoholism, drugs, or things of that nature, I do not think those conditions qualify someone to be called disabled. I think those conditions result from personal decisions.

A band asked me to go on tour when I was 22 and asked me to play drums, and I taught myself so I could go on this trip with these people. The drums found me; I didn't find them. When I started playing, I realized how appropriate an instrument it was for me.

I'm sure that there are reasonable people that had some reasonable projections about the future of New Orleans, but none of those could include not trying to rebuild the city and make it better than it was before.
