A COLLECTION OF GOOD WORDS
伦敦
London
On the other hand in London you can get an audience that desires dance to go as far as it can go: they've seen the bricks of ideas built over a period so therefore there is an acceptance of what otherwise might seem out on a limb.
另一方面,在伦敦,你可以找到一些观众,他们希望舞蹈能走多远就走多远:他们已经看到了在一段时间内形成的思想砖块,因此,他们接受了那些看起来可能有点冒险的东西。
You know, I have guys that are almost stalkers... it is very strange. I had this one guy that e-mailed me off my site, and thought we were boyfriend and girlfriend. He then came to my house in London, I do not know how he found it.

And as I grew older, I then auditioned for the Royal Academy of Music in London, and they said, well, no, we won't accept you, because we haven't a clue - you know - of the future of a so-called 'deaf' musician. And I just couldn't quite accept that.
随着年龄的增长,我参加了伦敦皇家音乐学院的试镜,他们说,不,我们不接受你,因为我们对一个所谓的“聋人”音乐家的未来一无所知。我只是不能完全接受。
