M.I.A. Zitate

Sri Lanka is an island off the coast of India. There's two ethnicities there; one the Sinhalese, which is the majority and the government, and the minority, who are the Tamils. That's where I'm from. And my lifetime sort of began there; I spent 10 years, and I was there during when the war started and fled as a refugee to England.

Deutsche Übersetzung

Sri Lanka ist eine Insel vor der indischen Küste. Es gibt zwei Ethnien dort; einer der Singhalesen, der die Mehrheit und die Regierung darstellt, und die Minderheit, die die Tamilen sind. Da komme ich her. Und meine Lebenszeit begann dort; Ich verbrachte 10 Jahre und war dort, als der Krieg begann, und flüchtete als Flüchtling nach England.

With 'Worst. Person. Ever.' I knew where it started and where it had to end, but I threw Raymond as many curveballs as I could along the way. He's like the coyote in the 'Road Runner' cartoons.

I've learnt that your life is more interesting and fulfilling when you don't lead it in a straight line and you go off on zigzags. I've made it a rule that if life becomes too comfortable and easy, I'll disrupt it.

I had a lot of encouragement and tolerance from my parents, but I also have many friends who didn't get that from their parents and in a way they have more strength from spending years where nobody believed in them.
