If a playwright is funny, the English look for a serious message, and if he’s serious, they look for a joke Picture Quote #1

My uncle is so funny - Don Vito. He was always fat with the craziest voice. Dude, he barely speaks English; it’s just full-blown jibber-jabber. It’s so funny to watch on TV because you really need subtitles because you can’t understand him Picture Quote #1

A lot of people don’t know enough about me. When I meet people who freak out about Game of Thrones, they don’t even know that I can speak English Picture Quote #1

There actually had been a tradition within English music of the 60s of people looking eastwards, maybe in quite a naÃƒÂ¯ve way, but nonetheless, you had musicians like George Harrison or Bryan Jones recording the musicians of Joujouka in North Africa Picture Quote #1

In my home country, there was a little shop with old books, but it was really in the countryside. You couldn’t find English books. I found this very avant-garde American art book that had information about Georgia O’Keeffe. I was very much impressed by her Picture Quote #1
