Englisches Zitat von Paul Theroux als Bild

My record was so bad that I was first rejected by the Peace Corps as a poor risk and possible troublemaker and was accepted as a volunteer only after a great deal of explaining and arguing.

Paul Theroux

Deutsche Übersetzung

Mein Rekord war so schlecht, dass ich vom Peace Corps zuerst als schlechtes Risiko und möglicher Störenfried abgelehnt wurde und erst nach vielen Erklärungen und Diskussionen als Freiwilliger akzeptiert wurde.

I'm really passionate about pantomime because it is often the first introduction for a child to theatre, and if that child has a great experience at a pantomime they will continue to come year after year.

Under Thatcher, who ruled us with an iron rod, great art was made. Amazing designers and musicians. Acid house was born. Very colourful and progressive.
