Sting: Citáty v angličtine

“Many miles away something crawls from the slime
At the bottom of a dark Scottish lake”

Sting

"Synchronicity II"
Synchronicity (1983)
Kontext: Mother chants her litany of boredom and frustration
But we know all her suicides are fake
Daddy only stares into the distance
There's only so much more that he can take
Many miles away something crawls from the slime
At the bottom of a dark Scottish lake

“I don't drink coffee I take tea my dear
I like my toast done on one side…"

()”

"Synchronicity I"
Synchronicity (1983)
Kontext: With one breath, with one flow
You will know
Synchronicity
A sleep trance, a dream dance,
A shared romance
Synchronicity A connecting principle
Linked to the invisible
Almost imperceptible
Something inexpressible

“Many miles away there's a shadow on the door
Of a cottage on the shore
Of a dark Scottish lake”

"Synchronicity II"
Synchronicity (1983)
Kontext: Daddy grips the wheel and stares alone into the distance
He knows that something somewhere has to break
He sees the family home now, looming in his headlights
The pain upstairs that makes his eyeballs ache
Many miles away there's a shadow on the door
Of a cottage on the shore
Of a dark Scottish lake

“A connecting principle
Linked to the invisible
Almost imperceptible
Something inexpressible”

You will know
Synchronicity
A sleep trance, a dream dance,
A shared romance
Synchronicity A connecting principle
Linked to the invisible
Almost imperceptible
Something inexpressible

“Dissent is a legitimate and essential right in any democracy and modern politicians must accept this fact with tolerance. A sense of proportion — and a sense of humour — is a sign of strength, not a sign of weakness.”

Then we can dream
Spiritus mundi
If you act as you think
The missing link

“I know a great deal about Indian music and I have tried to understand its intricacies. I am aware how complex ragas are and how specific the rhythm is. I will spend the rest of my life discovering this wonderful India. I’ve become addicted to it.”

Quoted from Gewali, Salil (2013). Great Minds on India. New Delhi: Penguin Random House.

“We are a parliamentary democracy; we don’t function by plebiscite. It’s dangerous. I don’t believe in referendums – Hitler and Mussolini organised referendums.”

“A star fall, a phone call
It joins all
Synchronicity It's so deep, it's so wide
You're inside
Synchronicity
Effect without a cause
Sub-atomic laws, scientific pause
Synchronicity....”
