艺术家是情感的容器,情感来自四面八方:来自天空,来自大地,来自一张纸片,来自一个路过的形状,来自一张蜘蛛网。
KEEP EXPLORING
沿着这个主题,再读几句。
I feel like I've matured more musically than I have personally. But I totally embrace what becoming older has to offer. I find the wisdom that comes with each passing year is a trip.
我觉得我在音乐上比我个人成熟多了。但我完全接受变老所带来的一切。我发现每一年的智慧都是一次旅行。
A ball had passed between my body and the right arm which supported him, cutting through the sleeve and passing through his chest from shoulder to shoulder. There was no more to be done for him and I left him to his rest. I have never mended that hole in my sleeve.
一个球从我的身体和支撑他的右臂之间穿过,穿过他的袖子,从一个肩膀传到另一个肩膀。没有什么可为他做的了,我让他去休息。我从来没有把袖子上的洞补好。
I used to own an island in the Seychelles and had a big boat there and one day I came across some Somali pirates who were passing by on their way to re-provision their boat. They didn't even acknowledge me - which is unheard of among sailors - and it was like looking into the eyes of a black mamba.
我曾经在塞舌尔拥有一个小岛,那里有一艘大船。有一天,我遇到了一些索马里海盗,他们正经过塞舌尔为他们的船补给给养。他们甚至不认识我——这在水手中是闻所未闻的——就像看着一只黑曼巴的眼睛。
